Hi Jim, I thought he had cocked up the windows of the Cravens SO and bodged it into something else to save it but was too polite to say !

RMweb Premium Clive Mortimore Posted December 12, 2020 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted December 12, 2020 I found out the Trix 3.8mm scale Mk1 chassis is the correct length and the bogies are the right centers for a 61 ft 6ind LNER coach. Three things Trix coaches are useful for. 1, sides ideal for Swindon built DMUs. 2, roofs are the right profile for Hastings units, and chassis are useful. 3, the Commonwealth bogies are a tad under 4mm and when fitted with scale wheels and under a full length coach look OK. 4, the chassis is useful for LNER coaches. A LNER Tourist Buffet, one of the three rebuilt with propane cooking, on a Trix Chassis with Mailcoach bogies. A song to go out with a bang to this week 8 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Clive Mortimore Posted December 15, 2020 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted December 15, 2020 There has been a lot going on in the model room but still not much to show. Now I couldn't make up my mind which of these two songs I should share with you today. So please vote for Rosa and Jenny Or Emily Or just enjoy both songs. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Andy Pluto went out this evening in Gus's rain coat. Gus was quite stocky compared to Pluto, he looked like a poor kid having to wear his neighbour's hand me down school blazer. He'll grow into it. 1 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Err, surely he's named after the EM1, more likely given Clive's interests? 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
