Anybody resin casted a 37 nose ?

[rob D2]

Hi,

Just wondered if anyone has tried this ?

Seems to me split headocde variants and spare noses for bachy 37s are hard to come by.....I’ll be surprised if no one has done this or is there a chance of 3D printing ?

Plenty of resin casts around for later variants of 37 noses.

Which begs the question - what happens to the removed ones?

 

Cheers,

Mick

Out of stock at peter's Spares, but I assume Shawplan themselves have them.

AFAIK these were originally designed for Lima 37's and perhaps could also be used on Vi Trains models with some mods. Both Split and Centre box versions are the early type with Buffer cowls. Various resin nose ends suitable for Bachmann DRS 37 conversions etc are available from Pete Harvey and Rainbow Resprays - (formally R3 sprays)

Yeah maybe DRS ones, but nothing older
