Bodging an SECR 6-wheel Brake Van - part 2
Just a couple of small changes have been made since the first part of this build.
I have added the turned brass buffers (as per Simon0r's suggestion in his topic), and I have substituted some slightly larger diameter Hornby spoked wheels, which somehow look more spindly and archaic, and entirely suit the style and character of the SECR brake van, in my opinion. With these wheels it runs even more freely than with the Romfords. I suspect the Hornby axle length is a tiny fraction shorter and therefore has slightly less friction in the bearings.
I have also removed the moulded gutter lines from the roof, although I have retained the moulded stove chimney, at least for the time being.
