Hiya Allan, great video and the Precursor Tank looks great

Full of inspiration. While I could never go back as far as pre-grouping, all it needs is the intro of a r-t-r 'Cauliflower' or something big from the Precursor family, and Llanfair would see more LMS engines from Shrewsbury! Funnily enough, I built a pile of LNWR locos in the 1960's when doing models for George Mellor and mocked up a Belpaire 4-6-0 from one of his kits. He didn't think there was a market ...

I have Three of Malcolms LNWR cove roof carriages that he made and painted for me some time ago. That I will probably never use.

Hi John,

My requirements have migrated into the less common. I'm in discussions for a diner but I also have plans for a sleeper train (Crook Street portion!) and a mail train. I'm assuming I'll have to scratchbuild, so components will be needed. I can see an investigation into 3d CAD and printing in my future...

Cheers
Allan

Ideas ticking away in the back of what passes for my brain…

Jenkinson method, probably achieved by means of a Silhouette drag knife, combined with resin 3DP for ends, bulkheads, seating, tables, etc.

Possible application of FDM 3DP for underframe and bogies. Dynamo, brake cylinders etc, and battery boxes in resin.
