Revolution Trains OO SR Inspection Saloon
Darius43 replied to Darius43's topic in British Outline Modelling
It does sit a bit high on the bogies. Apparently there are plastic shims that are fitted between the bogies and the chassis - presumably to enable transit around R2 curves. Removing the shims is supposed to improve things a tad height-wise. Cheers Darius -
Arrived this morning Cheers Darius

If I tap the wheel with this hammer and the wheel goes clang, then I know that the wheel’s there. But supposing that the wheel doesn’t go clang? Well then, I know that the train’s gone!

Finished Cheers Darius

Wagon assembly completed and ready for priming. The door chains will be added after priming so no as not to clog up the chain links with repeated spray paint coats. Cheers Darius

I built these MIR kits a few years ago, however the resin axle boxes started to spread apart, which caused the wheels to drop out. Fixed today by inserting plasticard horseshoe shims between the bearings and the axle boxes. Cheers Darius
