The ex-GWR Mogul has been neglected and really needed finishing.
I have a bit of a blank when it comes to cylinders and motion-must be all those Panniers! Help was at hand however. Nigel kindly fitted the cylinders and slide bars to the chassis I had made and a very good job he has done.
The cylinders had to be widened to allow some front axle lateral movement and the front of the frames had to be removed to allow the pony truck to swing.
The frames can be replaced with plastic card and will hardly be noticeable when on the track. Oh-and the wiring needed reverse fitting on the motor so now it goes the same direction as the others!
I also notice that the latest edition of British Railway Modelling has a 3mm layout included-Cadeveton by Gwyn and John Williams. A bumper year for the Premier Scale!
