once i had ordered the body i picked up some parts from 247 Developments

the parts are
Reversing lever i got 2 of these one in white metal & one in brass
M126 brass lever
RE2 white metal
A Ramsbottom saftey valve SV5
A Whistle M14
& a brake standard BS1
The 1st job is to give the body a wash then a light coat of gray primmer to see what needs doing
Had a little chuckle to see the bag containing 'GWR Reversing Screw' actually has a lever in it! (What the Yanks call a 'Johnson Bar')
Rod
Seems to be a promising project, Brian. Another 3D printed loco with whitemetal and brass detail parts!
Heres some pics showing the body with a coat of primmer on the floor looks fluffy but thats just over spray which i have cleaned up before giving the body a coat of Filler primmer

By the way i will have this with me at NGN this week end as wellas one of the railcars
You may be able to use sheet lead strips along the inside faces of the frames under the footplate. I did so with the saddle tank - I don't know what you did with the earlier models.
If I would be building this I'd think of fitting a Seuthe smoke unit in that boiler. There is a good space for it, and a hollow chimney. But since I'm not building it, forget it, I'm a gimmick man! ;)
This weekend i will be having a look around Narrow Gauge North & will have this & othe 009 items with me if anyone wants a look
Well got some of the detail done
1st i added a wood floor ( wills wood sheet)

The cladding really transforms it. Red lining on the tank and the cab sheets would look nice!

thats it for today Now will i get time to add lining before NGN
need to find/make/add a fire door
That looks very good, Brian - a little detail transforms a simple 3D model, doesn't it?
Good luck lining it - and good luck at NGN!
Coal now loaded & the loco has been asked to have a Run at NGN will try & get som film of it

I wouldn't call this a big loco, but then mine are much bigger generally! The lining makes it look very smart.
Did you have it out at NG North?

dont forget Ted this is the same size as your 3D printed saddle tank from Tebee which is very large foe a VB loco like the Welsh Quarrys

I had it with me but it did not get any running
It's a lot bigger than a De Winton, but you should see what's in a book on VB locos I have!
