Hi all,
To while away the time in quarantine, I've just bought myself a SeFincast metro kit to build. It seems fairly straightforward, but there are a few decisions to make early on:
First: rigid or compensated - I'm reckoning on building it rigid, unless there are any compelling reasons to compensate it (it's 00, not EM or P4).
Secondly: Motor and gearbox. The instructions suggest a DS10 and Romford gears and there's a mount for this. Personally I like the High Level gearboxes, and looking on RMWeb, there was a suggestion that a Mashima 1624 and a High Level Roadrunner+ would work, driving the front coupled axle. Has anybody out there actually done this, and was it a fairly straightforward job?
Finally, are there any things to watch out for in the build?
Thanks
