ttc0169 Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 How long did the flat take you to put together Noel? Looks fab! Thanks rebelred-it arrived in the post at 11:30 yesterday and I worked on it for most of the evening' date=' It was a easy to build except for the fiddly spigot pin holders along the solebar which needed a lot of patience but otherwise I would highly recommend the kit, Thanks must go to Des for going to the trouble of providing the kit and to Glenderg for his excellent tutorial which was of great assistance. The 20' BELL refer containers on the wagon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenderg Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Looks super Noel, glad the tutorial was of some help (must finish it off now ). Those bell 20's look great on her :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirley Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Well done on your quick build Noel, how does it run on your layout? Really impressed with the design of this model, some parts have been very ingeniously thought out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really impressed with the design of this model, some parts have been very ingeniously thought out.[/quote'] Kieran-It ran ok when pushed around the layout and encountered no problems, I'll put a tension lock coupler on them over the next few days and do a loco hauled test to check, Yes I agree Des has certainly done his homework on this model-and it has great attention to detail.

Noel Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I see they fitted sunbeds in cab's. Yes the blue fluorescent light bulb effect in 071 cabs is pretty awful. At least I found a way to reduce the brightness on LokPilot and LokSound decoders and it doesn't look bad, but a warmer LED colour would have been better.
