RMweb Gold tractionman Posted December 21, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 21, 2014 Thanks for posting - lovely bit of modelling. On the back of this, I've just ordered one of these Dick Kerr loco bodies, and the same chassis as yours, so a nice little Christmas hols project for me when it all arrives!
