Having sorted out what couplings are to be used, I have been able to get on with detailing the buffer beam area. The central buffers/ couplings, which are purely cosmetic, are knocked up from bits from my scrap box. It would have been nice to have some castings! I have also added some detail to the rear of the bunker which was looking a bit bare. I will leave off the rear vac pipe until after painting and lining.

I have also finished off the drive assembly on Railcar No. 4 so that is now running as well. I think I am getting to the point where I had better get on and do some painting!

Anyway, as the sun is shining this morning, I have been outside to take some more pics.
