MTK Class 47 painting completed. I also shortened the chassis by 2mm to stop the bogie fronts foaling the buffer beams and better align the bogie-mounted steps with the cab doors. Also by added buffers and buffer beam side valences. Cheers Darius

Started this morning. The kit is missing the buffer beams. Fortunately I have spares from a previous MTK Class 47 modelled with cut back buffer beams. Plan is to mount the MTK body on a spare Hornby chassis. Joints filled and sanded and plasticard shutter parts scribed and fitted - these were missing from the kit. Primer coats applied. The kit-supplied white metal buffers are a bit anemic (and bent) so be will be discarded in favour of some spares box buffers. Cheers Darius
