  1. Looking very good Darius! Adding the lighting conduits to the roof help brings it alive. Steve
  2. Hi Keith & James, Have a look at http://www.barrowmoremrg.co.uk/BRBDocuments/CS/Book_No_230_EK_web.pdf There might just be enough info, see page 19 onwards. Steve ps you can still get transfers for 6S & 6L units from DC kits I believe
  3. For what it is worth, Peters Spares have an image of the Modelmaster pannier tank lining sheet, and although it is out of stock, you can take the option "email me etc..." , that is if the sheet would be useful. https://www.petersspares.com/p/modelmaster-98051-london-transport-lining-only-oo-gauge-transfers At least we can see what you would get! Steve
  4. Railtec do some LT pannier numbers https://www.railtec-models.com/showitem.php?id=8033 with a picture ALso Modelmaster https://modelmaster.uk/4mm-locomotive-lining-packs/17126-4r9805-london-transport-yellow-black-yellow-ready-made-up-lining-panels-for-ex-british-railways-57xx-class-pannier-tank.html?search_query=london+transport&results=44 and https://modelmaster.uk/4mm-locomotive-lining-packs/17095-4m4086-yellow-black-yellow-lining-for-sr-london-transport-locos.html?search_query=london+transport&results=44 and https://modelmaster.uk/4mm-london-underground-decals-transfers/1506-lt9813-underground-fleet-names-gold-two-pairs.html?search_query=london+underground&results=46 no illustrations so I dont know how good they are. Steve
  5. Artist material shops usually sell spare spray nozzles, well mine does.
  6. Sorry, i got my A2 and K2 bogies transposed. A2 was the 7' 10" motor bogie, drawing page 215 April 2010 Underground News (L.U.R.S). K2 was the 7' 3" trailer bogie, drawing page 216 April 2010 Underground News (L.U.R.S). Both used on the G stock motor cars ordered from Gloucester Railway Carriage & Wagon Co. in february 1924, which later became Q23 stock 7' 10" in 4mm scale is 31.33mm, which rounded to nearest 0.25mm would be 31.25mm. So my question to Stephen is:- WHat size Black Beetle bogie do we need? 30.25mm or 31.25mm? Steve
  7. The kits have now appeared on https://www.eastleighmodelrail.co.uk/london-underground-q23-driving-motor I note the instructions state a 30.25mm wheelbase black beetle bogie is required but surely the A2 bogies were 7 foot 3 ins wheelbase which is 29mm in 4mm scale? The K2 bodies were 7 foot 10 ins asymmetric wheelbase. Steve
  8. Surely the 6-CIT/PAN/PUL sets used SR electric Express gangways rather than "british", also Spencer-Moulton buffers throughout. In the past Silver Fox produced some overlays for these unit but I am not sure if they are still available or available just for the trailers. Worsley works also supply etches for these units. It all depends on how accurate you want to make them. Drawings are available from Mike King.
  9. It looks to me as though you have correctly produced the asymmetric pivots of the Q38 bodies.
  10. Hi Timber, might I suggest A) you remove the protective brown paper label from the wash n cure turntable so that more UV gets reflected up under your print when curing. B) sit your print on an upturned glass tumbler on the turntable to make best use of the UV C) resin print a section of s scale timber base from templot, cure, then measure the sleeper length, and the length of the base over the two outermost timbers & compare with the templot designed template in order to measure resin shrinkage accurately Cheers Steve
  11. Also suggest you think of joining "London Underground Railway Society" LURS for short. Here is a lin to their website https://www.lurs.org.uk/index.htm If you then click on the [Underground News] button you will get a page containing buttons for extractcs of differernt past years of their monthly magazine. You have to scroll down a bit to see the buttons. Choose [2010], then scroll down til you see April, then select "District Electric Trains Part 14" This will open a PDF copy of part 14 of the article by Piers Connor Scroll down to page 5 0f 9 (actually page 211 of the printed magazine) to see a drawing of the A2 type of bogie. Page 6 of 9 has a K2 bogie drawing. I predict you will then spend some time perusuing the other parts of the magazine article. Hope this helps, Steve ps Is the 4-COR somewhere on your schedule?
  12. On the side with the single window next to the oval window, the single window is too deep, I thought he had corrected this on the 6-PUL pullman composite etch after I sent him my Mike King 6-CIT,PAN,PUL drawings, but easily corrected with a spare bit of etch. Have you made any progress with the your original 6-PUL set of etches. regards Steve
  13. Would these Railtec be any good for you? Railtec code 3014 They are in reverse so stick to inside of windows Or there is also Replica railways sheets 41056 and 41057, scroll down this page 41056 is available in reverse for inside the window too
