mikesndbs Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Hi Guys A late Xmas gift arrived today in the form of the very beautiful D11 in Great Central livery. Just WOW. However it comes with many parts. I have worked out where the guard irons go and that probably I can't fit the frame fillets. There are however 3 small item that don't seem to be mentioned in the instructions, can member help me out please? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Market65 Posted December 27, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 27, 2017 They are the lamps which I fitted onto the edition which I have. I believe they are GCR pattern, but could be wrong. Best regards, Rob. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikesndbs Posted December 27, 2017 Author Share Posted December 27, 2017 Thanks guys, what a lovely loco these are. Have you any pictures of your completed ones please? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Decorum Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Thanks guys, what a lovely loco these are. Have you any pictures of your completed ones please? Lovely locos indeed. Of no use to you, I’m sure, but just for fun. It would be nice if Bachy were to provide a hook without the links to fill the hole in the rear buffer beam; I’d rather not chop the moulding. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re the hook, I just snip off (and ave done) the chain links leaving just the hook. Model has to work lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Decorum Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Your mention of frame fillets did puzzle me. I should have thought a bit. Now I have dented a wall with my head and it might be working a little better. This is the older D *D* 11. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Market65 Posted December 30, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 30, 2017 Sadly, both the guard irons and fillets can foul the front bogie swing on toy train curves. I have three foot radius curves, and I've still had to leave them off it. With them on the bogie derailed all the time. Best regards, Rob. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Decorum Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Well, my rails do have gentle curves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pom-pom Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 They are the lamps which I fitted onto the edition which I have. I believe they are GCR pattern, but could be wrong. Best regards, Rob. Here are some examples of GCR lamps for comparison. It looks to be that Bachmann have accomplished this task well. Nick 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
