MSS with additional upgrades
Hi I thought I would share a photo of my MSS loco with a few upgraded parts which is enhancing and improving the running performance of this great little loco. Hope you like the picture.

That looks rather splendid that Kevin. I do like the brass topped chimney.
If at first you don't succeed, use a bigger hammer!

It is used to blacken metals. I am not a fan of polished brass so I find easier to use than paint and it is durable.

Thanks Tom for explaining this to me what I could do is leave the brass so it oxidises naturally so it looks more used and not polished.tom_tom_go wrote: ↑Wed Dec 27, 2017 8:40 pm It is used to blacken metals. I am not a fan of polished brass so I find easier to use than paint and it is durable.
