PM Andy_P. He's Swad based and has several small Exhibition layouts that I sure he would let you choose from. -

Take 2 coaches. 1 x TGS and 1 x FO. Cut the guards area out of the tgs including the 1 passenger window, cutting as close to the next frame as possible Cut the end two windows out of the one side of the FO leaving as much frame as possible Insert section of TGS into FO side and trim guards end to fit. File, sand, paint and glaze Should about do it Thats assuming the other side is just windows as per a normal FO?
-
Oh i'm so glad I started this topic. Some beautiful pics. Thanks guys I guess modelling a BFO is essentially a plating out the end windows job? It's not quite a TGS so I guess its a custome job
-
Anyone got any pics of BFO's?
-
I'll dig out what pics i have (or 110 vintage) from my days spotting at crewe but i'm pretty sure most stock was mk2 aircons in the late 80's?

In particular the blue/grey variety I have no memory of ever seeing them as they wher no doubt out of the area I used to visit as a kid, plus blue/grey is a few years before my interest in all things rail began, I was wondering what the consists where like and what kind of haulage they had, as well as where they could be found?? Any info appreciated. I've got a growing rake of Jouef here that need something to pull them
-
I would assume that overhauling is part of the process. Why go to the expense of paint and vinyls on a loco destinded for store? As several 66's are to be done as well i assume they are E or F exam booked. Ill see him again next week so will give them a nudge and see if i can get some numbers, or better still a trip around toton (i almost managed that today)
-
A friend who knows a man (if you know what i mean) told me today that there are 6 more tugs and at least 6 sheds about to get the DBS treatment at Toton shortly. No idea about the numbers but lots of 'red paint and white sticky bits' have been delivered.
