SmallBrook Harlequin Gn15

Recommended Posts

Today I am starting building a SmallBrook Harlequin

So far I have cut of the Cylinders from the chassis & smoothed off the foot plate & ground the inside of the boiler so it fits

 

I have also started on the saddle tank as it has ballast in it this shows though the paint if notting is done to it so I have given it a coat of Halfords filler primmer which will once dry have a light sand followed by a 2nd coat

 

heres whats in the box

Very nice!

 

I have had a Smallbrook 'Columbine' Gn15 kit bought ages ago and sitting on my shelf waiting to be assembled - seeing yours here is spurring me on to get mine completed. 

 

cheers,

 

Keith

That's a great looking Columbine there!

 

I have been working on mine too over the past day, still needs primer and painting and a few bits adding still, but it's coming along:

I hope to get the rest finished soon today.

 

With the loco finally getting close to completion I am beginning to wonder about a layout to run it on...!  :locomotive:

 

I might just have to change plans with my 009 layout under construction, and switch to Gn15 instead - can I get Peco 0-16.5 flexitrack to bend to 5 inch radius...??

 

cheers,

 

Keith

Nice job there with 'Harlequin'.

 

My 'Columbine' has turned out ok, paintwork perhaps a bit dodgy and some of the brass bits, but I am quite pleased with how it looks for a first effort!

 

It is a heavy little loco for its size.

 

cheers,

 

Keith
