  4. It uses a Suethe smoke unit and a flashing fire module and poor lighting which also gives a slight out of focus effect!
  5. Created as a talking point and at that time their was no other suitable location apart from opposite a fuel storage!!!
  6. A friend of mine had same issue he bought a secondhand one from a swapmeet which looked pretty good till we put a dcc chip into it and I pressed down on the cab and it broke. Looked as if the glue holding floor had given way! He then went into melt down. i said lets put it on Ebay somebody is bound to want it for spares and surely some one did I think he lost about 15 quid but least he got some money back saving him from putting it in bin. Theirs a good motor plus other bits which other people are crying out for so I would try that way.
  7. Just reading about the TTS Hornby sound wagon suddenly reminded me about the burning brake van I created ages back so i thought I might share it with you again. Click the link at the bottom for the result!!! CLICK HERE FOR THE VIDEO http://ian-harper.co.uk/video.mp4

  9. Sorry its all coming back to me now I used Evostick to fit ends if their plastic and if the cabs are white metal something like an epoxy.
  10. I've built many MTK coach kits and I always removed one of the lips on the coach ends so rather then slot in you could rest the chassis on to the lip its a much easier way. Not familiar with the DVT but should be possible to do it that way. I would use a normal matt enamel such as Humbrol No 1. They where ahead of their time and a good modelling project but as previous member has said you need filler and patience by the way did it come wrapped with newspaper?
  11. hi Matthew throw the instructions away is my first tip and secondly build it in two parts i.e. body and chassis.
  12. Aha I had one of those coaches along with a brake and composite in crimson and cream plus green Princes Elizabeth running on grey standard track. Powered by a really weighty transformer and a small black controller with a red button that kept popping up everytime you had a short circuit. How things have changed.
  13. I find mixing in a spare jar and if its enamels I mix with the end of an old paint brush adding thinners with a droplet and if when I take the brush out you get steady drops of paint falling back then its Ok, it is trial and error!
