georgeT Posted June 23, 2018 Author Share Posted June 23, 2018 Well l think the O2 is finally done and is in the paint shop for a nice coat of under coat, and she will be finished in BR lined Black as No 35 'Freshwater' further research has found that Nos 35 / 36 were fitted with PP fittings so still more work to do....(Later). 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
N15class Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Laurie Griffin does a set of push pull gear which may well fit with a little modification. I do not think it comes with the long cylinder for the other tank top though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgeT Posted June 23, 2018 Author Share Posted June 23, 2018 Hello Andy, Yes l have always liked the look of the Adams tanks, having said that l love most of the Southern tanks...getting a collection of locos so l am thinking of building a loco depot... 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeT Posted June 24, 2018 Author Share Posted June 24, 2018 The more l think about it the more it makes sense to build another depot, as my main interest is in building locos, No coaches, plus not much uncoupling to worry about..... 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi George. That is why I built Feltham Road MPD to run all my locos. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Focalplane Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Me too, with Legge Lane MPD when I had no room for anything bigger. But it's gone now, except for the turntable and that may live to play another role. I designed the depot around the LMS cafeteria system but even then operating it got a bit boring. But if locos are your thing it does make sense! Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgeT Posted July 5, 2018 Author Share Posted July 5, 2018 lt's been far too hot on the work bench to do any work in the daytime, but l did manage to finish the D3 Brighton tank in the evenings, and when the primer has dried there are a few gaps and holes to fill in that the primer has revealed, also l have permission from SWMBO for a short branch line along the garden from the shed, only a short run but somewhere to run in locos ? 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
