Some additional work has been done on the D1999 Open Third coach. The buffers have been fettled (always a long job) and soldered on to the frame. The springing will be done later. The frame has been painted with acid etch primer ready for satin black on the underside and an appropriate colour for the inside.
The seating for the open coaches will then be cut to fit and painted prior to being glued in place. Materials are included for the open coach tables which need to be painted a wood veneer shade.
The photo shows the frame with all the components for the seating laid out.
