forest2807 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Early research suggests this loco was fitted with a Stones boiler and a universal port on the roof. Would any kind person be able to provide a photo of the Bachmann model’s rendition of these areas to ensure they are correct? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

45125 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 When fitted with a steam generator the small plate just behind the cab would be were the exhaust port would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wirey33 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Bachmann have got this correct. The bodyshell, with both ends flush, is only suitable for 47522 and 47190, which they have also released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesysmith Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Kiss photos, as 522 changed cab during its like due to accidents. Also, when repainted into green, I think it had its former boiler roof replaced with plain roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forest2807 Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 Thank you - that is just what I needed to see. I appreciate your time and effort to post that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forest2807 Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 Kiss photos? For clarification, the reason I’m asking about this is I have a battered old Lima version of 522, but someone has sanded the boiler plate detail off. I wanted to know what details I need to replicate with plasticard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forest2807 Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 Thank you Signal Engineer - that was most useful. Judging by the photos in that thread it seems to me that the Bachmann model is correct and therefore I need to reinstate the panels on the roof of my Lima version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
