the book came this morning and it an absolute treasure! loads of pics of some really unusual coaches and the odd bit of freight and p/w stock. thanks Pat for the heads up:tumbsup:
came across this accident report on a Drumm Battery Train back in 1935 while she on trials - great reading! I wonder if this contributed to their short life?

it would be one sweet runner if it did fit. no great problem with the bogie side frames - a good sanding and fit the silverfox ones and bobs your uncle!
lads, anyone know of a good book on the subject of coaching stock for CIE? there seems to be very little on the subject:( and i am looking for info preferably with pictures. thanks.
