LMS Fowler 4F - An Update

A couple of shots taken today, just before the Kettering Show. The 4F is waiting on a few brass castings to complete, then the chassis will be painted and the wiring added. The engine and tender bodies can then be primed, but only when the weather warms up and dries out (we had a flurry of snow earlier today).

 

The engine's chassis is back to front - my mistake - but it does help to show the beginnings of the DCC set up - two simple hard wood strips on which the 8 pin socket will be glued.

Thanks for sharing.  I have built Jim's starter loco and G6.  Do you think I could tackle the 4F?  Skill wise..  I really want a tender loco now!

The 4F is just bigger.  My first Connoisseur build was the Jinty and the 4F is no more difficult.

cool :)
