Karrier Cob - help for pictures out of Railway Museum York needed

[Slanjonok]

Hi,
My name is Sascha and I design kits for railway models, which are freely download-able for everyone having a 3D-printer:

https://www.printables.com/de/@Slanjonok/collections/654987

One of the models I’m currently working on is the Karrier Cob, being ones used by all Big4-railways.
During the modelling process I found insufficient information/pictures about the inside of the cabin, which would be visible, due to the missing cabin doors. Here starts my request for support: I know that an example of this mechanical horse is on display at National Railway Museum York:

Living in Germany it’s not so easy to visit the museum myself. So, my hope is someone here in the forum may have pictures of this lorry, especially of the inside part of the cabin or is anyway visiting the museum soon and willing to make such photos to share with me.

Many thanks in advance for you help.

The part of the museum which i think the Karrier was in is currently closed for redevelopment. I don't remember seeing it when I was in the remaining bit of the museum last week but I only went for lunch so wasnt really looking very hard ! 

 

If no-one has found you some on their hard drive by next week I'll swing by and see if I can find it.

Would be great. Of course, if it is not accessible, then it's fate. Many thanks in advance for trying!

Found this side great for the Scammell-ones, that are well covered by models at least in 2mm. To my knowledge the Karrier Cob is not covered at all. But anyhow thanks!

We went today at the request of No.1 son. 

 

Unfortunately the Cob is still in Station Hall which is the part currently closed. The building is having a new roof and the displays updated before re-opening later this year or early 2025. Sorry !

Thanks a lot! Than I have to wait, if I don't find this info anywhere else.

 

@melmerby This picture is already in use - Thanks a lot!
