RSS Fetcher Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Ok, so some shots of the starting points of this project. Overview and proof of the concept The detailing bits as supplied by Dapol. On what's a 95 quid model, I'm disappointed that details don't particularly match a 67 - there's no knuckle coupler or cut lever, and the air pipes don't match the prototype. I know it sounds like a tiny niggle, but surely on a model this expensive it should be right? So on the dummy on the rear, the knuckle coupler will be nicked from a Farish 66 and the cut lever and pipes made up by hand 67026 before any work has been done on adding details Farish Mk2 BSO fitted with wire handrails and lamp irons, together with TPM etched gangway and RCH jumpers, together with BHE brass buffers. All corridor doors have been repainted from rail red to black - on the inner coaches this stops a bright red patch appearing each time the train corners, and at the outer ends an etched brass door (part of the TPM set) will be fitted, painted cream. Time to carry on, more later View the full article Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
