No 6212 never had a tender with a coal pusher , only 6206 had one and for a brief period in 1957 the tender went to 6207 before being reattach to 6206 

Yeah exactly, saw some more photos online that show the model definitely has a coal pusher tender, at least i won't have to repaint a BR blue one in to 6206 in Lake. Thanks for the easy job Hornby.

Hello all, I`ve picked up a Hornby R3999 Class 8P 'Princess Royal' 4-6-2 6205 "Princess Victoria" in LMS crimson lake for a very good price from Hattons last week but I  have no idea of what these 2 'copper' fittings are for - does any one have an idea? I`ve already attached the cylinder drain pipes so I`m at a bit of a loss.

They are just a different type of cylinder drain cock.

I assume you have the ones fitted that look like this?
