Yep, going to cut the windows out when I've marked everything out! Didn't know it was Lab 6 some one made it as Test Coach 6, now I know

Now have attached the observation duckets to the completed body sides, now to add lamps, brackets and window frames to the cut outs. One side didn't quite stretch over so I'll be using solder to fill the gap.

With the long overdue arrival of flux , I've managed to do some more to the kit! First the observation duckets, then the body side windows. Still got one side to go!. So here's todays progress

As mentioned in my last post the pantograph will be a former Class 390 Pantograph. This looks very similar, I've now fitted it, and now plotting the holes for fuses.

I would also be interested, hopefully someone put it on the Market

I've already done the main modifications but forgot to post on here, but I've cut down the space to hold the Pantograph for the Serco Test Coach 6 "Prometheus" which was scrapped around 2004/5 I think! Here's what it started like and now looks like! It'll be tired with a 390 pantograph and fuses, with Fox transfers.

After several hours of looking though pictures of the N class, I've finally soldered on the front footplate section, ready for a new coat of pant and vac. pipe fitting.; which is the next job.

For Christmas I revived this Wills Kit from my Uncle... It is from a man (Who has passed on..) that modelled the 3mm "S" scale, but also the 4mm SR scene. (I have also been given some of his other SR stock) This being one of the kits he never finished... With the parts available this will be a challenge, as the only usable parts are the body, front footplate, smoke deflectors, tender body, Tender handbrake , and vac.pipe.. So this will kick start my latest project... Enjoy

Now windows are in place, now need to paint and fit the ventalation grills onto the toilet and genarator sections.

Sides now cut from frame, now to add the window frames...

fantastic - I've been wondering how to do this as I also live on the ECML, and see plenty of the RHTT runs

The whole frame of parts, with some very small details such as; hinges, lavatory extraction fan! First step is too cut the sides and windows and put them together.

Looks great, shame I missed it at Etonbury

Now have removed the buffers between the units. And filled and drilled new holes for buffing plate
