yes its a compromise on the 8f chassis which i was not happy with but don`t have the time to do one as id like at the moment so this is a dry run I may consider doing the DMR kit at some point but its not very likely at the moment but also was tempted with the w class but its going to be the shunter next in its southern style as its hopefully a lot quicker than waitting for one to come from Bachmann in RTR and its a bit different from the standard 08!

thanks for the comments I hope to have some paint on it soon!

cheers ian.

just spent a couple of hours making lamp brakets its been driving me mad but got a few done they are not perfect but give the right idea so will blast a pic up at some point once its light! as its 1.am gmt I think its to dark! and im not going to get the lamp down.

so you will have to wait.

cheers ian.
