Main construction built OOB, with a Hornby-Triang Tender Chassis used as a Base. Chain used instead of Nylon. Body painted using Railmatch Colour 300, BR Green.











Overall, a reasonably satisfying build. Having never done anything quite like this, it was interesting to say the least. The big ejector pin marks were quite annoying, but nothing a little bit of surgery couldn't fix. The fit was generally quite good, but some warped parts and a very dated instruction sheet didn't help the build process.
