At long last, construction of Tony's Arum Sharma C3 kit is getting started. It will be detailed on my own topic, but I need to ask a couple of questions here first.
Firstly, does anyone know what the cab interior looked like? Its going to be very similar to the C2X, as they had the same boiler. I have several drawings, but nothing shows the cab.
The angle and position of the reversing rod indicates screw-reverse rather than the C2X lever type, so what does a Brighton Screw-Reverser look like? And does a manufacturer provide one?
Likewise I haven't so far located suitable buffers. In late SR days they had a long narrow tapered shape buffer with a square base. Any suggestions please?
You would be right in surmising that my knowledge of Brighton locos is limited, as is my reference material. I'm more of a South Western man.
I don't know if Tony wants his topic cluttered with such discussions, so please PM me if you prefer.
Thanks very much,
Dave.T
