jhb171achill Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 I have found an old Worsley laminate brake standard (set of sides etc). Does anyone have any thoughts as to what might be a suitable donor chassis / bogies, both as a strictly accurate representation, and possibly a cheaper compromise that looks acceptable?

Mayner Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Hi John The biggest challenge with the Worsley Works Park Royal and Laminates is in forming the roof as they are scale width and length and not really suitable for a British rtr chassis My article on building these coaches will give you an idea of whats involved. http://www.worsleyworks.co.uk/NG/NG_NIL_Art1.htm Alternatively we might be able to arrange a swap for a set of 1904 "Bredin" sides and a Dapol Stanier donor coach .

Andy Cundick Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Dead easy way of making an eliptical roof is to use 5 thou brass easy to form the ellipse over a bar.iv'e used on all my Worsleys from Castlederg to Creat Northern dead easy Andy.
