I have converted my 2nd Jinty for the EM gauge layout.
This time i bought a pre built set from Ultrascale, expensive but very nice indeed. The wheels are a straight swap and the coupling rods attach to the wheels with no modifications required. I had to cut the brakes off and glue some 40 thou plasticard to bring them out and file to shape.
I then glued them back on to the chassis with a bit more filing to the plasticard.
After a bit of paint the body went back on.
Runs really nice. I have got a 3F tender and a 4F to do next. I have started the layout but will save that for another blog post once its working properly with no shorts.....
Thanks.
Paul.
