Three four wheeled coaches, built by
Jim Watt, are CR Drummond 28'6" stock, respectively diagram 15 brake
third, diagram 13 first and diagram 14 third. The latter is in the
all brown livery as none of these vehicles received the white upper
panels. The three are built from etches produced from reduced artwork
from John Boyle, originally designed for 7mm scale, with castings
from Jim's own masters and Association plain buffers. They have full
brake gear, including Westinghouse cylinder (Jim said: it was all
on the etch and it seemed a shame to waste it !). |
