Life in the Castle

After a bit more work, the castle conversion now looks like this:


and what's more, it runs like this:

First run with body fitted properly.

Towards the end of the run it was suffering from a slight slow down every 4th turn of the wheels. I have others that do this, but haven't figured out a decent fix yet, something to do with the timing shaft I believe.

There's no whistle at the moment as I haven't worked out how to fit one in. I did cut one down until it fitted, but by that time it had stopped whistling (or maybe only so dogs could hear it). Also, there's no coupling at the rear of the tender yet.

And then it will need a bit of paint.

More updates as and when,

David

That's great work, David. I like how you are using the GW crosshead & slide bars... excellent.
