Back on the work bench

At the weekend I had a sudden urge to butcher something, and so I grabbed the first thing that came to hand that required butchering; The Ew bogies. As I had done with the Twinset railcar bogies, these were cut back so that I could add the detail to them. Again, due to the general design its possible for one to remove almost all the plastic while the brass pickups hold the wheels together.
I'm currently in the early stages of working on the gear towers for the end bogies, which have so far involved soldering bits of brass together. I'll have to wait till later in the week to do the cutting and filing bits.
