[ATTACH] OK, I stayed up all night making a new ball nut and a length of studding to suit, a new handle, re-enamelled the hood, made a pricker...
No, not even right for them. Ties and cap badges, definitely, to denote the regions but locos, not that I know of. Surely you remember the...
It's fire-fighting I need to know about more... ;) :lol:
Wouldn't the tilt in that direction bring the glass nearer the blowlamp? I hadn't realised the control cocks were placed off-centre -...
