Battery and Harzish conversion to LGB 2073D U2 with Fosworks and My Loco Sound

So a few pics out on the line but before the crew added yesterday.

A few pictures for comparison with my DCC sound fitted No.2 Zillertal, I originally purchased this beast for this conversion but on looking at the works required particularly the completely wrong chimney elected to hunt for a cheeper option. Looking at the pictures I am sure you can see the many changes made to an U2 to make this what I initially thought to be a slightly different U2.

Job done. Well except perhaps for some more weathering, not least to help mask the plastic liquid glue marks on the bottom middle of the tanks.

Thanks again. It looks superb. A great idea. Looks good in context. No need to follow progress. It‘s done!

Nice bit of modelling, I’m now eyeing up my spare u class, and having thoughts involving razor saws and plasticard

For some reason, I missed this so enjoyed getting all the story in one swoop. Excellent skills on display there, Jon. Great work!
