NIR CAF C3K set - the latest CMAC 3d printed model

[33lima]

I've just finished my CMAC 3d printed C3K set via eBay, having fitted cabfront windows and wipers and got the bodies secure on the chassis. Power is a Lima motor bogie and pickup bogie with CMAC frames in place of the Lima ones. The corridor end mufflers below floor level meant bogie mounted couplings had not enough swing so I ended up with D tings from tension locks glued under each end. The corridor connections - longer than in the original, less detailed CMAC models - left no room for coupling hooks so I cut these away and fitted a pivoting C- shaped hook underneath the D rings and with the latter levelled, it pushes and pulls without drama, at least on 3rd radius curves, which will do for me. There is a driver in one cab. I might add the vertical recessed exhaust pipes on some car ends and attend to anything which I notice needs a bit of TLC - photos are great for showing these up! - but I think I’m done basically. Decals are Railtec. First pics = as supplied (two of the three cars anyway).
