Clan Line pt 5


The Fatadder

196 views

Having ran out of work to do on the other projects I was working on, its back to Clan Line.

 

My original plan was to sort out the loco to tender coupling, but I am still struggling to work out what is needed for it (as I am combining the fitting of that, with scratch building the missing bits under the cab/firebox. Starting to think that I am going to have to try and get to see the prototype with camera.....

 

In the end I moved onto the tender, I was going to start building the Masokits sub chassis, however as I still cant get onto rmweb 3 (to reload the topic showing the construction of one) thats on hold again. I then came across this photo on the SEMG website http://www.semgonline.com/steam/pics/cd35028_7.jpg which shows the back of the modified tender.

I have carefully carved off the lamps/wiring from the back and fitted a square of plasticard cut to the shape of the door. The cover of the tanks on the top of the tender was carefully removed, then materiel carved from the end to match the prototype. Just need to cut the 3 tanks now and it can be all glued into position, (will have to find a good match for Hornby's BR green as well....)

 

Photos should be added later...
