I know it's subjective and there's much debate about GWR Locomotive green but, to my eye, Accurascale's rendition is too saturated (too colourful). Just stating my opinion, not looking to start any arguments. 🙂 Edited November 4, 2023 by Harlequin 3 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted November 5, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) Enough of this joshing. I makes me dizzy. Please own up if you have a Dapol 43XX and if so, do you have one that might need a GWR Smokebox Door (no Number-plate block) OR you have one with the NP Block and a top Lamp Iron that you might want to swap? I have a GWR version (sound fitted and from an Auction for £60), that I've just 'upgraded' (and I say that with no malice) to a BRWR one, by adding Steam Pipes and altering the Cab Side Blue Spot position, as well as renumbering it to an Exeter St David's Engine. BUT the Spare Smokebox Door, wot I got from Dapol Spares, hasn't got the top Lamp Iron fitted! Before I attempt to fettle one from a weeny bit of Brass Strip and fail miserably, I'd like to see if I can con an actual one in a Horse Trade. I've also got the Collett Buffers as spares too if anyone would swap those for an Iron? Many thanks. A. Neddy.

I drill a hole into the loco; apply a small dab of superglue to the pin end; push it through the hole to decent depth with a pair of track cutters for good grip; when glue is firmly dry, snip off both ends to correct size. Not totally 'prototype' - but it works. Brian 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
