    one of the jobs this week is a Martin Finney LSWR low roof van kit Dia 1410 & as i do not normally build wagons i have put this build in My Blog
    so far i have got the chassie to a rolling stage & there are 26 parts to it
     
    the build is taking a lot longer than it takes me to build a coach as the kit Can build to any of 3 Diagrams which can have any of 5 brake types & 2 axle boxes so just finding the part takes longer than fitting it
    the one i am building is to dia 1410 fitted with morton brakes & panter axle boxes

    Highland Rly TPO

    By mozzer models,

    this afternoon i have been working on a set of etches from 247 Development for a Highland Railway
    heres what you get from 247

     
    well i had a brass chassie which with a bit of triming fits this needs to be 184mm long
    i have built up the body without its cast fittings & the chassie still needs truss rods & it castings fitting which i hope to get done tomorrow which i got from 247
    with the etch you get a roof which needs rolling i will also do this tomorrow
    the bogie are from 247

  24. mozzer models
    Well today i have managed to finish off the Highland TPO so it ready for painting the Mail dropoff Equipment & net will be fitted after painting
    After rolling the roof i fitted it along with the roof lights which needed the ends filling wich i managed to do with low melt solder I also made the end steps plus fitted the end grabrails
    the truss rods were made up from .7mm wire & some split pins the rest of the chassie detail was then fitted all of this is from 247 Development
     
    I have made this coach so that the chassie is bolted on to the body to aid painting
     

     
    This is now sat on the radiater drying so it can get a coat of primer tonight then it will be painted over this week
    Next on my work bench is a 247 developments Kit for a GWR Dia L23 lot 1503 a twin pick up Post Office Stowage Van
