Blog- Jubilee Point - Ed's Big Bruv comes to stay

RSS Fetcher · June 3, 2014

A chance purchase from the RMweb classifieds (cheers Damian!) means I am now able to show a comparison between the relative sizes of a class 73 ED in OO and TT scales:

Unfortunately it also shows that the cab castings could have done with a little more work to make them more prototypical, but at the time I was only working from photographs and “close enough” was good enough.

It also shows another comparison between the two scales;

With OO you send off a cheque, get a package in the post, open the box and have a play.

With TT it’s exactly the same,

only the contents of the box require just a teensy bit of “fettling and fine-tuning” before you can have a play.

(Thinks: and now I really must stop prevaricating and just get on with installing those blasted point motors!)
