City of London ready for painting
This is my first blog entry. Hope I've got the hang of it!
After what seems like an eternity, 46245 City of London is ready for the paintshop. The last few snags were sorted today. The first problem was rough running and I sorted this out with a drop of oil on the gears and driving wheel axles. The other issue was that the loco was getting jammed on curves. I finally found that the front wheels of the bogie were catching against the front footstep. This was mainly because the bogie was mounted fractionally too far forward. I 'moved' the slot in the bogie spacer for the securing screw forward by about a half mil and this solved the problem. Relieved!
