last night I sat down and drew out a scaled dowm plan for the Cb. I could have photocopied it, but I wanted to get a better feel for how everything went together and where I was going to make compromises. I was surprised to find that there may not be many to make. I would just describe it to you, but after recieving thefollowing message from the peanut galley I had no choice.
Dont just tell me, I need photos dammit!!!!!!!
Possibly the cab might have to come forward a bit, but thats probably it. The more observent will notice that I have done some more slimming down of the chassis by removing the big weight under the mech. This will be compensated by the amount of brass I intend to make the top out of. I also painted the wheels black last night as well, as I was getting tired of the shinyness on the workbench.

Are you planning to roll your boiler from brass?
No, its a brass tube.
Without wanting to sound like a gushing idiot, that looks completely jolly good.
Nice to see something a little different being attempted in NZ120.
And in other news, I entered the train room on Sunday for the first time in about 6 months.
