07. B12 - Getting there.................
Well, the B12 is finally starting to look something like.
Have re-worked the frame extensions over the front bogie, moving them further inboard to where they should be. Pipework also re-done and/or added as necessary.
Today saw the front end detailing pretty much completed ...and the new boiler washout plugs inserted.
Now need to do a little filling and smoothing of that ugly mould line along the side of the boiler and also add the various handrails, after which it will be more or less ready for the paint shop.
On test it's performing extremely well and has just had my rake of 5 Hornby lighted Pullmans around the layout in both directions, without problems.
