GMKAT7 Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Good morning Captain, As you know, I can provide air cover from my RAF if you need it :) I was once told off at junior school by our very stern Headmistress (proper 'old school' disciplinarian) for my imitation of a Spitfire in the library. Must have been all the D-D-D-D sounds, not the out spread arms. Given her reputation I am surprised Mr Cane didn't come out to play (got away with one). Even at the age of 10 I was train and plane mad, must have been my Dad's influence (ex-RAF Bomber Command engine fitter and a live-steam model engineer to boot). Cheers, Nigel. 2 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has the underframe been fitted the wrong way around on your example? Should the step align with the balcony gate/door and an additional step added for the new double door added the the enclosed section? Many thanks, Pete. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must be right, the van - as thus converted - was a kind gift from a friend. I will look to making the necessary corrections in due course! 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted March 15 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 15 I've posted a blog entry covering the first of the two whitemetal panniers that I bought from Tony Wright, originally built by Peter Lawson. I've added a few extra details only, not wanting to detract from the original character of the loco. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
