Martin_R Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I’ve also been trying to establish which 20/3s had the logos on the central doors. I’m fairly sure that 20 301-5 were central and 20 306 upwards were offset towards the cab end. This site has a good selection of images that seems to confirm this but I’m sure there could be an exception to this. https://www.theironroad.net/DieselElectricLocomotives/Class-20/Class-20-Direct-Rail-Services/i-8qkTFTT/A I’ve now converted my six 20/3s with working marker lights at the cab end using the method shown by SouthernMafia earlier but using these SMD LED’s, the wires are very fine and a devil to work with but they do leave the cab mostly clear of wires etc. 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just need to wire in the lights (but that can wait until I get a decoder fitted and add the missing marker light) Was this an easy match to the old Class 20 chassis or does it require some butchering to make it work?

Just need to loose the inner lighting board and cut off its two mounting screws. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRAILRAGE Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) Turning my spare Body into a non powered run with any DRS Loco using a spare early example Chassis. Try as I might I've hacked away at the front of the Chassis bock to clear the Front lighting but I still cannot get the Dam thing to fit. Looks like removal of the front lighting may be the only way. Shame as I was hoping to keep it. Edited June 15, 2022 by TRAILRAGE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame as I was hoping to keep it. I have done the same with a replacement body on the old chassis. As it will only ever run paired with another 20 or 37, I removed the lighting unit as it will never be used and the body fits a treat. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackB95 Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 For those wanting to have marker lights fitted to their 20/3 models, I highly recommend Track3D's services. I sent my body away and Chandler fitted the missing lights in no time at all. Absolutely gorgeous results! If you want yours done, head over to his website HERE. You will need to contact him to get this service, but it's a very professional job. 1 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
