craigwelsh Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Thanks Peter. I think I'll try and get to speak to Mr Flowers as soon as I can and see if they're still available. I know Brian is extremely busy at the moment, but it would be great if he'd pick up a Peak body one day soon and think, "Hmmmn". Cheers. Sean. He's certainly looked at the top of one and produced a rather nice fan and grille. I think many people think those are the big detailing change to make on a diesel (its certainly normally the easiest) so I think Brian has concentrated on those for commercial return first which makes sense. I'll remember to ask on the weekend about the nose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium PMP Posted September 29, 2011 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted September 29, 2011 Just a quick news flash Shawplan is at Manchester show this weekend. Added to the range are the 2mm/N Gauge extreme etchings for the Bachman Graham Farish class 37, and work in progress on some glasing for the 4mm GWR Toad and LMS design 20T brakevans by Bachmann and Hornby respectively. More details as ever on the blog http://shawplan.wordpress.com/ Re the Bachmann 44/45/46 Brian is doing components for the locomotive types, already available are the roof and fan grilles, and cab side handrails. Laser glasing is programmed too as are bogie detailing components. I believe the nose side grilles are also in line for development in due course.

I'll hang off for now then as I can feel another "plethora of peaks" coming on if the nose grills are in the pipeline..... Cheers. Sean. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

45609 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 ...... and work in progress on some glazing for the 4mm GWR Toad and LMS design 20T brakevans by Bachmann and Hornby respectively. Sounds good. Will this include some small galzing pieces for the ducket windows on the LMS vehicle? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigwelsh Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Sounds good. Will this include some small galzing pieces for the ducket windows on the LMS vehicle? Stanier brake Yes 4 ducket size pieces, 8 long and thin, two larger ones. I'll show it when I find the body to stick them in. Not released generally quite yet though I don't think.. Mk1 Suburban glazing is very very good for anyone with some of these and wanting decent windows. They fit in really nicely on my pair too from the outside. PMP showed a good picture of a finished glazed example http://shawplan.file...08/img_6116.jpg but I thought i'd do a before and after to show the difference. Not the best pictures but you get the idea, they'll need aligning properly, the apertures painting and fixing with Klear when ready but they pushed out of the fret and fitted in really easily . Note they don't fit the longer Replica suburbans though, they need another pack designing with shallower corners to the fixed windows and wider door windows.. 57xx Note that the glazing done for this fits the recently released examples with separate handrails on the modern chassis. It does NOT fit the older Replica and Bachmann split chassis examples.. The windows on those are smaller as i've just checked.. Same poor photos of the new window on the left and part of the old strip on the right. The diffraction of the original windows is quite apparent and they really aren't as good as those on the old Replica body actually. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium PMP Posted October 4, 2011 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted October 4, 2011 Bachmann Suburbans, see attached image for before and after. Pannier windows are as Craig above comments specifically for the current Bachmann offering in both high and low cab versions. We find that even though apearatures should be the same size for left and right hand variations on some models, that the accuracy of the laser cutting means that any slight variation in the original moulding may mean we have to supply and label handed components. GWR/BR Toad / LMS/BR 20t Brake Vans I have today collected the test cuts for both the above models, the glazing is being tested on the bodies of the following models. Bachmann (Nee Mainline) GWR/BR Toad. These have initially had to be cut left and right handed (see Pannier comments above). LMS/BR 20t Brake Van Originally Airfix, but also released by Dapol and currently in the Hornby range. After test fitting we anticipate these will be available for Peterborough later this month.

D400 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Hi chaps, Picked up the usual couple of nameplates and detailing items at Warley and also elsewhere bought a Lima Mk2b TSO (madness I know!) - I'm hoping to upgrade it and was wondering if this is a model that is likely to get the Laserglaze treatment at some point? Cheers, Bruce Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium PMP Posted February 10, 2012 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted February 10, 2012 Unnoficial observation I know Brian has looked closely at the Bullieds, this week when I picked up the test shots above for fitting we looked at the Bullieds, one thing to bear in mind is the production of them may not be as simple as first appears. They are very fimly on his 'to do soon' list. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
autocoach Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Adding my encouragement for laser glaze for the Bachmann Bullied coaches. A welcome product as Bachmann seem in no rush to re-do their somewhat flawed effort. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
