Every so often, something new lands in my hands to make life far more interesting than building just another coach. A gentleman by the name of David Catton took the trouble to look me up and send a set of etchings for an ex. LNWR D266 corridor third. He had done the CAD's and had drawn it without the lower waist panelling to represent a typical BR condition. So here they are.....
I was able to draw on my own etchings for the floor, ends and underframe. A Comet Models extruded aluminium roof was used because its very shallow rebate would not show in the toplight windows. The first move was to prepare a floor 52' 6" long and attach a pair of my spare LNWR ends. The floor was also drilled for the new bogie centres....
