LMSfan72 Posted April 27 Author Share Posted April 27 My early Mentor is back on the workbench. A simple job to cut the coach ends of a Bachmann Mk1 chassis. The body fits it and has the screw holes in the right place too. As I have 97201 “Experiment” on the way as well as the Accurascale Mk2B coaches in RTC livery I thought I’d kick it on a bit! 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMSfan72 Posted April 29 Author Share Posted April 29 Mentor was sitting too high on the B4 bogies. So, I cut the turrets off the bogies and printed a flush pivot mount: Much better now! 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMSfan72 Posted April 29 Author Share Posted April 29 The orange I used on 73962 was very light on pigment - turns out is is apparently a transparent paint! - so for 73963 I tried a different paint. Pretty good match to Accurascales: 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMSfan72 Posted Sunday at 19:37 Author Share Posted Sunday at 19:37 My second sleeper waiting decals. It took a lot longer to get here as I required for multiple light functions: Day, Night, Tail each end and selectable so I can have either end off. Also fitted an EOT at one end. Loksound 5, all wire and LEDs mounted in the body so I replace the Dapol board with a simple 8-pin socket and mounted the decoder I the body too. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
