I managed to find the shot I needed after a delve on Flickr however, seating all sorted now Edited August 30, 2019 by Ragtag 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuoitsPlayer Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Hi I'm loving the work on your Pacers. I went to school on one every day for 7 years!! I'm detailing my RRNE pacer where did you get your detailing parts please? Many thanks Matt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragtag Posted September 11, 2019 Author Share Posted September 11, 2019 Hi Matt, they're a mix. The handrails I think are Gibson with some suitable diameter brass wire threaded through - did those years ago and need some more so we'll have to see what's out there nowadays. The NRN pod is Hurst but has been unavailable for years - I have some Pete Harvey ones for the other units. They're fiddly to fold but do look good. The seats are intended for model buses and are from Mark Hughes. Theyre not a perfect match but are close enough to the Arriva seating for me. I also have some Merseyrail style ones from the same source. Hope that helps Stu 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbowilts Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I’ve just come across this thread. I have a few to do up into Arriva Trains Wales units but everything is currently packed up ready for our relocation to South Wales. Keep up the inspirational work, Stu Tim T All packed up ready to move to Felinfoel 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riseburn Simon Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 This looks very interesting. I'm doing a North-East themed layout but based in the late 1980s (during the transition period from the ubiquitous class 101s to the pacers), so I'm going to copy a few of these ideas for my 142s. And then on to the 143 I plan to build! Keep the pics and posts coming - it's very inspirational! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium JDW Posted June 10, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 10, 2020 Did you get any further with this project Stu? I just stumbled back upon the thread while searching Google for images to try and see if any of the original GMPTE orange units had twin-leaf doors fitted!
