Re:Enhancing Amex Coaches (or Newqida)
Cheers Gareth.
Great article. I'm new to G scale and buying up secondhand stock to get me going. However I bought 4 blue Newqida coaches as you can buy a rake of four for the price of one LGB version. I'd planned to respray them cream and navy blue with gold trim, (orient express ish). Your article is very informative with helpful tips. Also engineering the coaches to improve performance is half the fun as far as I'm concerned. I'll certainly kit bash some more into projects. A GWR style autocoach for my Stainz and a rake with a Scotrail style DBSO are all tempting propositions.
Thanks again
David
