Flying Scotsman as Preserved - Update #1

From my previous posting, I now have the smoke deflectors and the A3 which is 60043 Brown Jack. I was happy to buy the A3 even though a deflector is separate from the loco, its been named 'Lefty Brown Jack', it came with the loco so I can repair it. Actually this deflector shows me the mounting arrangement on its inside (which Hornby have modelled) which is a great asset, as the brass etches include the mounting bracket pieces. As for the double chimney, yes Hornby have modelled it as a separate item, but to remove it from the loco will damage it and the smokebox, so I am hoping my friend Stephen who can cast small brass items will be able to make a mould with it in situ and hopefully add a spigot on its underside which can fit directly into the OOLS Flying Scot.
