    Maybe it’s to form an ersatz barrier to discourage people from accessing or otherwise falling into the gap between the sloping ends of the units. Cheers Darius

    Hi Patrick, I use HMRS pressfix lining decals. You cut out and peel the lining away from the backing sheet and place it sticky side down where you need it. After that you apply water with a brush to the tissue paper covering and peel it off leaving the lining in place with no carrier film. It’s a lot easier and much less stressful than using waterslide decal lining. You can make sure the lining is straight and in the right place before applying the water. I used pressfix lining for this Ratio LMS coach. Cheers Darius

    Hi guys, As of this morning am getting the following message when opening the website:- This happens when using Safari on my iPad or iPhone and when using Chrome on my pc. Should I be concerned? Cheers Darius

    Not yet. MTK LMS coach repurposed as a UTA (ex NCC) coach. White metal coach ends cleaned up and glued in place. Plasticard strips used to reinforce the joints.. “Standard” chassis made from plasticard sheet and Plastruct angle sections. I used the MTK trusses but replaced the MTK bogies with Bachman LMS bogies. Roof detailing next. Cheers Darius

    Recently acquired from eBay a complete and assembled MTK class 42 bodyshell. The builder has made a reasonable job of the assembly but has applied plasticard grilles to the bodysides - presumably as the flush grilles were sanded away in the assembly process. I removed the plasticard grilles and re-scribed the flush grilles in their place. Primer coat applied. Cheers Darius
