old bachman 03 questions


Recommended Posts

Hi people

 

Ive just aquired an old bachman 03 which was reputed to be dead, however following a thorough motor cleaning and oiling round the chasis, with a bit of running in it seems to have alot of life in it yet.

 

I bought it more out of boredom and fancied a bit of a project.

 

body wise its not brilliant but more than salvageable. its been renumbered 03073 on one side (hense my interest as this is the loco i regularly drive at Crewe Heritage Centre)

 

I want to restore it to 03073s early 90's condition with red buffer beams, red rods, and cast double arrows on the side.

 

So here are my questions

 

its missing amongst other things an air tank off the front of the cab, air horns, and a futher cast double arrow on the other side yet to be renumbered. Does anyone know where to obtain replacements? doesnt matter if they are white metal, resin or brass.

 

Also the original bachman model never had an exhauster box on the right hand side, does anyone know if anyone makes one?

 

many thanks in advance

 

Matt
