Baggies1961 Posted June 12, 2022 Author Share Posted June 12, 2022 Made a start on the third MTA, this time Graham has sent me white metal buffer shanks instead of the resin ones. Hopefully they will be ok so just testing them with the buffer heads. Also added some brass wire to the brake calliper's at either end, I shall have to do likewise to the other two. After this one its either the TTA I bought at Doncaster yesterday or the VGA. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to meet you on Saturday, apologies if I was a little distracted trying to run the layout and talk! Was a most enjoyable day and Dovedale seemed to go down very well. Just sorting the few pictures I managed to take. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

D6775 Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I never thought, mine was at Doncaster. Can't remember if it was on the MIOG stand or still in the box! I am thinking of moving it on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
