So i have come to realise i have a growing obsession with parcels vehicles. 

I have also been stretching my kit building muscles recently so thought i would combine the two and build the ratio kit of tge SR bogie B. 

 

Here it is in it's unboxed state. 20190510_204821.jpg.20338e9716eba88a98e649a725927b34.jpg

 

I have also just poured a wheat beer so progress of any kind is not guaranteed this evening. 

 

Happy modelling for now.

I was able to dig out the van and the battery boxes use .4mm monofilament as you say and the vac cylinder rigging uses .6mm (using my vernier calipers) but my original commentary of the build says .5mm.

 

So, my calipers measure the monofilament as .4mm amd this I assume is used for the periscope wiper also. Mine are missing and in truth I dont remember ever fitting them.  

Thanks for your interest. I'll let you know how I get on, though I have to admit progress is slow. And I haven't even started on the fiddly etched bits!
