On to the corridor side,

This is a bit more difficult due to the closeness of the outer windows to be he doors.

 

The process for the third was the same as for the compartment side, only this time I added a little extra reinforcement in the centre.

Onto the break, again the first job was to chop out the door. If I was doing this again, I would have chopped out both doors at once and swapped over (making the windows align better )

Again I started with the compartment end, followed by the van sections. Once dry the other side of the guards compartment was added, and after giving the evostick 24 hours to dry the modified door was glued in.

The last third will be completed tonight, before attention turns to modifying the interiors to reduce the first compartments to third width. Along with swapping the corridor side over on the break.

 

I have turned my attention to planning the new window frames in the RH break and the CKs, I am going to paint some fine micro strip cream, and plan to glue on to the Airfix windows with PVA.

 

Now started to get really tempted to do the restaurant pair to go with it, though I have a feeling the restaurant third is not available.
