Another new ANLR coach
Well again your going to have to wait to the launch for any more pics, but work has carried on this vehical. The glazing has been glued in, as has some of the interior detail that has been patiently waiting for some time to be fitted, including little sepia pictures of my railway and the Talyllyn railway for the first class compartment. Amazingly, the lighting appears to be going to plan, the first circuit for the tail lamp works, and all of the LED's for the interior lights have had their resisters fitted and tested. Still awaiting fitting are couplings, vacuum pipes and painting of buffer beams and steps.
"What the hell is that?"
"It's a model icebreaker sir."
"It's a bit big isn't it?"
"It's a full scale model sir....."

Yes it will be appearing on Friday. In fact, here is another picture of it. Of course it isn't giving much away.....
As you can see the lights work, although I had a minor panic today when I drilled one of the holes for the screws that holds the roof on in the wrong place, result, I had to get the filler out to fill it in again.
One more thing, the carriage this vehical is replacing is about to appear in the For Sale section

The carriage made its debut at the PTLR, unfortunatly I fogot to take a picture of it with lights on in the semi lights on Jubilee bridge like I should of done so you'll have to put up with a couple taken during running in trials on the ANLR the day before
There are still a few bits to fit when I get round to getting the parts, these are third class transfers and door handles and grab rails
Completing this carriage gives me a rake of 3 matching vehicals
And if you want a rake like this of your own, the ANLR is open to building coaches for other railways, just ask and i'll quote you a price
