bordercollie Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Hello Reading MRJ 64, I see that the Masokits GWR Corridor connections are of high quality. However, it will be a real pain to order anything from this trader from Australia. Are there any other offerings from the trade that are of similar standard?

RMweb Gold ikcdab Posted November 25, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 25, 2020 I think that closing the gap between coaches is one of the best things to enable realism. I hate seeing that gap! You can easily make your own from thin card or thick paper. There are loads of articles about it on line and on rmweb. This is one of the best Ian 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike G Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Roxey mouldings are worth a try. And I know Mark Seward - who runs the GWR modeller Facebook group - also does a fully working GWR corridor connector. The Masokit ones are good, but you will need surgery on your index finger, because you have to hold so many parts to solder them in...don't ask! I made 3 sets and I could not stand the thought of more burning flesh, so gave up and used paper ones from Modelmania in Bristol UK. Mike 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKGL Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I use some folded Black stiff paper. The centre part is cut to the shape of the existing Corridor Connection, and is just a push fit between the coaches. Below between Bachmann Collects. Not prototypical, but closes the gap. Showing 2 of the inserts. I use 4ft points / curves, with no problems. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
