Pete Harvey Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 ABD975974-78 Arlington Fleet Services Translator Carriages So that you know these carriages are fitted to either end of an EMU when it is being transported on None electrified lines. This is a conversion of two Bachmann Mk1 carriages. The kit has replacement etched brass side (not overlays) enough for the two carriages and decals. All that is required is two Bachmann Mk1carriages and paint, which is fully listed in the instructions. If you would like more information on this product please look at my website Pete Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
YesTor Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Are these a suitable conversion to any other Mk I departmental prototype? I am thinking along the lines of Network Rail Mk I coaches? thanks Al Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Harvey Posted September 6, 2011 Author Share Posted September 6, 2011 Al The kit is only for ADB975974 and ADB975978. There are extra blanking plates supplied in the kit to produce the earlier versions of these two carriages but only these carriages. Pete Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Harvey Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 James They will not do for the carriages you want If you contact Mick Bryan if you look in the RTR Detailing section you will find that Mick has had some etches produced to convert standard Bachmann carriages so the carriages you want can be created.

Pete Hi Pete, My etches are for the BG's only - used as HST barrier vehicles. (And I've run out of them...........) 6376 (ex 975973/1021) in the pic has had some major door mods done and is not too dissimlar to your etches. Here's another pic of 6376 - http://www.departmen...com/photo/6376a BTW - 6376's regular partner is 6377 (ex 975975 - previously 1042) Cheers, Mick Edited October 21, 2012 by newbryford Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy Davison Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Hi Pete, They have been a long time coming, however at long last, I've managed to complete my pair of Arlington coaches, which were on display on Great Endon last weekend at Wigan. Now just got to complete a few more projects.... Cheers Jeremy 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
