nice little beauty there ken! can you give us any info on the real thing? never seen any loco with the coal bunker stored in front of the cab...very different indeed!
'We the unwilling, led ny the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungreatful. we have been doing so much with so little for so long, we are now qualified to do anything with nothing'
-my work motto!
specially for glenderg, a few pics of the inside of a spoil wagon. must admit, i never knew the sides were curved....that explains how they were emptied with a loader shovel!
heres a few pics...
there is a lot of sanding to do to get the finish right, sometimes you sand too hard and you remove some of the detail...gently does it!
having the shapeways sulzer body myself, i used the bachmann class 20 chassis. near perfect fit , just have sand down the corners of the chassis to match the curve of the body shell. the body will sit on the existing battery box/feel tanks perfectly. smashing runner aswell! hope this helps.
