Bachmann Standard 73118

I know it's extra dosh, but the 1F tender Top is (was recently), available from Baccy as a Spare if things are not just so with 73118s version.

Photo from rails site...thanks.

Does the Tender Side top look correct (as per 9F)? I'm unsure without going up in the Loft and looking.

Looking now at my Bachmann 9F 92189,it’s identical…apart from the lining of course.

Thing that occurs to me with 73118 is that it ran with a name only later on in its career. Thus if you want to replicate its condition c1956-1960,that would have to go from the running plate.

Thanks Ian - and Phil. This is Bachmann's earlier BR1F tender that came with 32-506 73110 (picture from Hatton's website). Wasn't the main issue with the width and curve along to top?  You really need a view of 73118's tender from a higher angle, but the raves(?) do look more curved on the new one as per the 9F.
