Thanx for all the replies, lads. I think i have a plan with the bogies. Drew some preliminary plans in Coral. Will cut them over the weekend and check if it works.
I am progressing slowly. Built the cab today and as these things go.....saw that my windows are too small. Which is maybe a good thing....as i completely botched the roof on the one side.
Dont know how that happened.
Anyway....some of you mentioned how big it is. And by no means a small loco, she still is almost 9cm shorter than the class 34. Will post some pics to demonstrate.
So far so good. The last body bit needs to house the decoder , smoker with the speaker directly in front of that. Got a brilliant soundfile for it. I must just write the smoke map.
I reckon another month or two and she will purr. Some things will now be outsourced. Then you can do nothing but wait.
Oh....cabplates are being etched by Carel as we speak....
Laters!!!
