Gauge 3 gresley coach bogies


Recommended Posts

A pair of Gauge 3 gresley coach bogies from the GRS kit that have been modified to have internal springs. This has been created by soldering on a short length of 5mm brass angle on the inner bogie frame faces with the addition of an 8BA bolt down facing. The top of each axle box has had a recess drilled into it to allow the spring to be captured. The other end of the spring rests on the underside of the brass angle with the 8BA bolt to keep it in check and to stop it from pinging out. The springs are from my spares box originally from the Smith’s range of 00 screw links and 3 links that I did not need to use.
