Some of the lost wax parts look overscale to me, however, I was lucky to have some of the GWR castings from my MOK autotank assembly as spares and used these to base the cab work on preserved pannier 7714.

I`m happy with the result which will provide a `busy` looking interior.

 

So, at last, the kit has all been put together and I have built it in three sub units to aid final painting.

it is`nt all perfect I`m afraid as I made a few assembly errors due to `old age` and problematic eyesight difficulties

But I`m content as a final kit build.............................................................................................

Just to set up the painting shed and then start the finished painted assembly, wire up and test and then bring alive with DCC sound...................................

 

................................. see you all later.
