After a bit of fiddling about the side frames have been fitted to both motor bogies.
Rather pleased with the result and very pleased with Lennies side frame castings.
The flywheels on the Halling motor bogies ensure good running, the only downside is that the wheels are only 9mm in diameter.
The 10ft compensated frames for the rear bogie arrived and have been assembled and height checked- these have 10.5mm wheels.
This shows the testing of height using some spare 8ft 6 inch wheelbase frames.
I had to modify the chassis to allow for swing of the sideframes and now it all fits.
The steps could do to be a bit further forward but that compromises the buffer beams but I can live with that.
