J26 in NER livery looks lovely !!

Look here they maybe something similar https://Bachmann-spares.co.uk/ https://Bachmann-spares.co.uk/product/split-chassis-motor-contact-spring-and-axle-chassis-spring/e0000-036-01

You shoudnt need to touch the hole in the Rods, make sure they are straight and nothing jamming.

Nothing at Companies House relating to Brassmasters Scale Models either . Does'nt make you want to buy anything in future from them . I wont !!.

Small Claims County Court as a last resort. Very sad if Brassmasters do not sort this out the correct way, by simply sending another kit. As already said Royal Mail will only offer £20.

How did you pay for the item ?. Claim on your Credit Card, Paypal are even better. Royal Mail if they were used are a waste of time, they only offer £20 compensation for Recorded Delievery on many services. As already said Brassmasters should be replacing the damaged goods end off. Almost impossible to correct most of the damage in the photos. Very poor attitude and they are responsible as suppliers etc etc.

I recomend the HMRS Pressfix sheets 4 and 4a.

Jon I use these useful for lots of things including small Works Plates !! Bottom right corner in the photo. https://www.wizardmodels.ltd/shop/wagons/mt166/

Looking at the below links, I cannot see any major differences (if any). https://www.lner.info/locos/Q/q5.php https://www.lner.info/locos/Q/q6.php Mick
