Replacement cab windows?

[drt7uk]

Hi folks,

 

I got an Hornby M7 in LSWR lined green, the NRM edition, off eBay recently, but it was very poorly packaged so the chimney, dome, whistle and cab roof all came apart. The seller gave me a partial refund and I've managed to put it all back together.

 

However, I can only find 1 front cab window, when there should be 2. They are meant to be stuck to the cab roof.

 

Hornby say they don't have any spares. So my question is, does anyone else sell replacement cab windows?

 

Either custom made, or generic sizes? In this case, they'd need to be 5-6mm wide and circular.

 

Thanks in advance...

South Eastern Finecast do them for the M7 as I got them in my kit.

 

Seems they sell them in a pack.

 

SE57 Hornby Schools/B of B/M7 (x2)

You might also find them on eBay.

 

But whether they will fit is the question. I haven't got a Hornby one to check. I'm guessing they are made for the older version.

Hi,

Would 'Glue n Glaze' work for you.

Thanks Jason. I think they're designed for the old Triang version which has a different shaped window...but I'll email them to check!

I may have a spare cab roof from a modern Hornby M7 with the front spectacle glazing attached, but I won't be able to check until Wednesday evening. If I find it, you're welcome to it!
