heres my addapted version of the hornby,...
get rid of the rear pony truck, remove the pillar in the front truck and reduce the crane suppoer block. a dash af weathering and the cie logo and there you have it
could be wrong dave, but i dont think thats the same one . the jib appears longer on the working one and there is slight differences on the crain cab. i know there was 2 in inchicore but was told they were scrapped.
the best about the silver is that you can mank the hell out of it and it would look just as good. on the real locos the silver didnt agree with irish weather and the paintwork deteriorated rapidly!
well done ger. theres a great improvement on the class when detail is added...espically the windows and wipers - really stes the cabs off!
any problims with the motor?
Dave, it was a pleasure talking to you at the fair in cork. your work is excelent and thanks for taking the time to explain your building methods. the helix you showed me is something that will haunt me for a while!!
