Melton Works

Hence the reason, no matter how desperate I am, I will not be purchasing from the above clown! I hope you will get some 609's back in, but due to popularity, I am doubtful? Maybe the retailer should limit the amount they sell him at discount.

Again this is a must. I do believe this has been looked into, but there are issues with the artwork...

That just finishes off what Is already an excellent model! Nice 👍

I have 2x 402 which have been reworked to 424 and 409 both with Legomanbiffo latest 37 soundfile aand look and certainly sound the part on my Anglia "DRS short set"

Excellent job there 👍👍

Would love to see DRS 37716 😊

I measured the measurements from a 37/0, marked out with masking tape, drilled the 4 corners then cut between the drill holes, fettled in the window. Once aligned removed, painted inside the recess, then refitted the windows.

I had spare Accurascale bodyside windows, made measurements to line up where the hole was to be cut, then very carefully drilled out the hole (in 4 corners for rounded corners) carefully trimmed between the corners with a blade. Luckily the numbers and scottie dog came off with airbrush thinners.

That's what F7 is for 👍

My 402 x2 arrived today. What an excellent model! The dedication that Patrick, Fran, Stephen and co have put into creating this beast must be appreciated! Anyway, I couldn't have two 402s.....😊

I've managed to push mine to 175 but no higher!

And plated boiler port...

May be one for fox transfers...

No sorry, I'm afraid it is a Britania Pacific one. That is a must though having so many DRS 37s!

Your research on 37 roofs is immense! I totally overlooked that. Usually I will look for things like cast/fabricated bogies, bodyside windows/footsteps, tanks etc, unfortunately that was a "before" pic since refitting the doors. I had to repaint the whole yellow ends, as when filling the car headlight recess with milliput and repainting the doors, the yellow wasnt a perfect match. Should be able to sand the doors flat, or neatly cut plasticard into the door recesses, but will need painting whatever way. With flush front, I would just glue In thin plasticard in the door recesses and fill with milliput. All the best Kev

I downloaded WeTransfer to send a video to Accurascale support, to Simon, with a Deltic sound issue.

Yes one of my sand pipes is click, click, click on the sleepers.

Smooth roof 😊 now realising I will have to do the same with 324 (099) least it is within the removable roof section.

That is the thing, these Accurascale models have nothing generic about them. They are all unique. Yes I have to lose some roof rivets on the 109 I converted, but no issue if you dont mind the extra work. Reworked Alycidon into 2012 RSG and the amount of work involved, quarter light windows, position of ETH socket and a can of silver paint didnt sort. Anyway, awaiting x2 402 locos, missed out on 409 so easy conversion there, however the conversation to 424 needing alot of work, adding bodyside window, losing a lamp bracket, oval buffers at one end, square at other etc...

I have had a 37423 and the flange squeal did not work. I changed some CVs that someone had suggested to operate the taillights as by the function card... and hey presto... F11 suddenly became active! If I find these I will let you know.

Better get the file and roof grey aerosol out then 😊

Yes (older tooling) and filed the lenses to fit more flush into the box.

Has anyone thought about this one?...

You are welcome 😊
