Mainline GWR 66XX

[RobinofLoxley]

I am just working through my locos assessing them for DCC conversion as quite a few have no socket being too ancient.

 

When I revived my hobby I was given a couple of old mainline locos. Marks trains are currently reviving a 4MT and im puzzling over the 0-6-2T GWR pannier; it is a very noisy runner but there is space inside the bodyshell for a chip and what Im looking at is split chassis - I just have to intercept the power feeds and insert the chip, more or less. Take the motor apart and clean the armature, replace the brushes. Can I get a replacement armature? I would also like to replace the trailing wheels but havnt found a certain match yet, maybe someone knows the right supplier

 

Im quite OK with this one being put on Ebay in due course however....
