Unidentified Hornby Schools part


Recommended Posts

I am undertaking the conversion of a Hornby 'Schools' class locomotive to that of an Irish profile. I separated the body from the chassis and when I made to test the altered body against the chassis, a small green 'fitting' appeared on my work mat.

I am not sure it fell from the body or the chassis. Can anyone identify the following part and where it fits on the locomotive.

Many thanks in anticipation of assistance.

Hi Lambeg Man,

That is part of the underside of the front of the boiler. It clips in and out so you depending on what age of model you you remove the weight or in some cases I think there was a smoke element. It will only fit in one way so is quite easy to put back in.
