Hi , I have started the 2pm corridor coaches I am putting the bodies together first working my way from the front of the train backwards. The dining coaches need some thinking

. What I am going to do is make the veranda end separate,it will be bolted to the main body after painting as the en of the coach has paneling which will need lining. This just a dry fit as I feel my way. The panel which is separate at the moment goes on the other side of the door. When I dig out the blutac I'll post some more photos.

A bit of an update on the Dining coaches. I have made the ends as a separate assembly as there is panelling on the front of the coach which will need to be painted after this I will have to wait for the six wheeled bogies to become available which is in hand.

The first two coaches in the 2pm corridor are up on their wheels,( ignore the roofs as they belong to other coaches) still a fair bit to do. I have put the bodies together for most of them. Although I'm still waiting for the bogies for the 12 wheelers. .

Quite a line-up of grounded coach bodies there 🙂 

 

These are very appealing scenes, and a substantial amount of careful work is evident. I like your ground level shots along the track, they have that look of real lineside photos.

Not a breath or it might collapse. Literally just resting. The 2-4-0 tank is moving along,this really is a delightful little engine from the London Road Models kit . Hopefully I will get the chassis running next week.
