A very poorly built GEM D21 photos in Black are as it arrived via ebay a cheap buy.
I have managed to source replacement parts for all those missing or very poorly made GEM castings.
Loco is now being painted. It will then have to wait until I can get a High Level Gearbox before the Loco chassis can be built. Sitting in old Hornby drivers to check internal spacing for the chassis (a much chopped about Comet D49 etch).

GEM D21 finished and a Geo Norton LNER N8 also completed.

The D21 is a remarkable improvement on the ugly junk you bought. Looks very good after all your work and proper paint job.

As Overseer says, that D21 is a superb rescue job, great work.

D&S NER Brake 3rd . Brass replacement roof fitted , the plastic one supplied is dire. Ready for painting.




York mid 1930's , the only photo I have seen of a Teak scumbled LNER version, normally plain Brown in the LNER Period.

Secretly to myself I did question the shape of your large curved end handrails, Mick. But you're right - they do seem to have that odd kink in them in the photo, unlike any other ex-NER carriage I've seen.

 

[Mick LNER]

Thanks David for the help on this one . Now in the paint shop.

Ex NER Dia 53 completed.

Can anyone assist re photograph(s) the Roof layout of Vents and Lamps of a NER Dia 26 or Dia 150 Coach Lighting by the Electric powered version as below please .
As you can see from the photos D&S obviously didnt know at the time of the kits release either , there are no further details in either of the Coach instructions sheets .








thanks

Mick

 

[Mick LNER]

The ex NER Dia 26 completed , I forgot to take a photo of the Roof layout , a guess made re the Roof layout on both Coaches aided with some discovered photographs and assistance from Daddyman on here (thanks).
