An Evening with Nick Dunhill - Nick continues his series on scratch building a locomotive and this time he shows us how to build a footplate.

[Rob Pulham]

Nick Dunhill is a member of the Gauge O Guild Technical committee. He was formerly a research scientist, a gardener, a vegetarian café owner and now builds model locos for a living. It was a long apprenticeship but eventually he realised he could make a better living, building locomotives rather than cooking vegetarian food.

Nick continues his series of presentations on scratch building a locomotive and this time he shows us how to build a footplate.  

This follows the boiler, smokebox and firebox demonstrations in earlier shows and videos of these sessions can still be found on the Gauge O Guild YouTube channel, just search Nick Dunhill. Please note that you do not need a YouTube account to view any videos.

 

 

As usual it is at 20:00 BST. The date is Tuesday 26th July 2022. Members can attend for free and Non members pay £2:00
