pteandy1402 Posted September 30, 2023 Author Share Posted September 30, 2023 (edited) Avanti voyager respray of Bachmann class 221. Railtec Decals but been working with Micheal lomax on working destination panels in the cabs like his mk5 and buses. The 221 has very dark windscreens so I cut one out of clear plastic masked up a slot for the destination panel and used car headlight tint through a airbrush to tint it Edited September 30, 2023 by pteandy1402 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of interest where did you get the tamper kit from? cheers Craig The tamper kit is from a guy that traded a clockwork ideas but he only made a limited run off them and then dropped off the radar, he had been talking about making another model of a ballast cleaner but from what I believe that has been parked and he is concentrating on a couple of pertussis commissions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need an extra window at the first class end and no destination indicator at the outer end, one of the windows needs blanking out on the 4th coach back (I think it’s the shop and only on one side) I cheated with mine and just painted the black window in place, I’ve yet to blank the other coach window as I need to get a perfect match for the existing Hornby finish as I used the test train coach pack on mine Edited October 17, 2023 by big jim 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a respray of the sides as was in GWR to start. I did notice they only have 2 windows blacked on the power car and another window in another coach and the destination boards were wore at the blacked end but did this in just over a week start to finish and fitted the glazing Friday night before the show lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold big jim Posted October 20, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 20, 2023 One thing when you do the lighting, if your going for the full compliment, the walkway lights above the cab door won’t illuminate on the move, the tank and module lights will stay on but if you leave the walkway light on you get an audible warning, fault light and a warning on the in cab screen to tell you they are on! All the years driving them I didn’t even notice the roof didn’t have the green on any more, time to repaint mine I recon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
