DRS Class 88 - roof and underframe pictures required

[MGR Hooper!]

Hello everyone,

I intend to make Class 88 conversion kits for the Dapol N gauge and OO gauge Class 68. I'm looking out for detailed pictures of the underframe and roof of the Class 88 so that I can go ahead and start designing the conversion kits. So please do help out with images or even links to a good source for the images.

 

TIA

I can’t help with the roof detail, but I took some photos of the underframe of 88003 when it was on display at InnoTrans 2016.

 

Have a look at the images from the event on my website here in the DRS Class 88 collection;

Let me know if any of these help. If you need any image(s) without the watermark I can email them to you, but not before next Monday as I’m currently away from my files.

Thanks, no need to remove the watermark.

Sadly only of one side, but I put some detail shots of 88001 here including underframe:

Has anything become of this project?

I'll bet now that Revolution are going to do the 93, Dapol will be having a think about the 88.

MGRH seems to have a hotline to Dapol maybe they know something we don't?
