What became of this loco Tom? I'm curious to see what you made of it.Tom:42289 wrote:Hi All,
So here's the pics of the new loco its an 0-6-4, with track pick ups but will be converted to take power from a battery box but it will only have the power of an 0-6-0 as that is all the chassis is, as the other 0-0-4 is a non powered bogie. It needs alot of work but theres some other mods i want to do to it before it enters service on the HWLR. I will take it to the Longmead Branch for a run on the first week of November and I dont know what the overall colour will be yet.
Enough said here are the pictures:
As from the photos you can see that I have already removed the Buffers, and the Water Tank Covers these are just 2 things that are going to be redone :D The initial plans are to put 2 headlamps at the front and 1 at the rear of the loco, possibly raise the cab roof 1-2cm to give it a bit more hieght, smokebox handles on the smokebox door and anything else i can think of that can be done
Feel free to comment with any other suggestions :D
Cheers
Tom
I've enjoyed seeing the pictures as you build up yor wagon fleet. Your wagons and coaches are lovely pieces of modelmaking.
