TM2201A Posted April 30 Author Share Posted April 30 Seddon take two; the panels below the windscreen seemed a little flat so they've been reworked to improve definition and curved to match that of the windscreen, much better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TM2201A Posted Sunday at 18:03 Author Share Posted Sunday at 18:03 The 31' tanker has been on the workbench. The chassis is running and bogies sorted. The tank body, fittings and securing parts consumed rather a lot of paint. Body and chassis temporarily together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2201A Posted Monday at 15:23 Author Share Posted Monday at 15:23 I decided to tweak the Bison Mk3 cab a little, the cab sat a little higher on the chassis/mudguards than the original Ergomatics (a legacy of having to make space for the ill starred Leyland 500 Engine). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2201A Posted Tuesday at 11:35 Author Share Posted Tuesday at 11:35 Buffalo Mk3 Tractor to complete the set of the later cab (leaving aside the extra short wheelbase Bear tipper for now). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2201A Posted Wednesday at 11:48 Author Share Posted Wednesday at 11:48 (edited) Whilst waiting on printer time the CAD work has continued on; a Leyland Buffalo tractor has followed on from the work on the Bison 3 Tractor and the Seddon 16/4 has gained a flatbed. A mate has sourced an image of a long wheelbase AEC Mammoth Major tipper and it's very tempting, so much chrome and AEC bling it's a beauty but the resulting vehicle would dominate a small layout so I'm having to avoid the temptation (let alone his suggestions that I recommence work on sorting out the CAD file for the East Lancs Atlantean).
