Darius43 Posted April 8 Author Posted April 8 MTK Class 47 painting completed. I also shortened the chassis by 2mm to stop the bogie fronts foaling the buffer beams and better align the bogie-mounted steps with the cab doors. Also by added buffers and buffer beam side valences.

Flying Snail Posted Friday at 15:54 Posted Friday at 15:54 Thats a very nice job - you can see from the early pics that a lot of fettling and finessing went into it. 1 1 Quote
