1366 tank - after overhaul
Couple of shots of the 1366 tank after the alterations mentioned in the earlier blog post. After squaring up the boiler and pannier assembly, then fixing everything back in place, I also added glazing, rear cab window grill bars and a load of coal.
The grills are from the Mainly Trains etch and a bit of a cheat in that I simply fixed them as an overlay over the existing window
apertures. But I think they look better than having no bars at all.
The wonky "G" in Great Western will have to be attended to at some point. I'm guessing the letter moved during application
of setting solution, as I'm normally quite careful about alignment.
Overall, I'm chuffed with the way this little loco has worked out. I was so bothered about the misaligned
boiler that I couldn't really stand to look at the model, but it turned out to be a surprisingly simple fix - far less
bother than I'd anticipated.
