009 Lynton & Barnstable Observation car.


 Although this Brynkits offering has etched bogies included, I have decided to use PECO GR-104 Coach Bogies as fitted to the rest of my L&B stock. I obtained mine from Dreamsteam of Aylesford, Kent https://www.dreamsteam.co.uk/
No connection- just a happy customer!
 All that is required is for the hole to be opened up to 4mm and the bogie clips in. I have added a washer to increase the ride height of the body, this saves removing a lot of the triple folded end.
First coat of paint and once fully dry will have 2nd coat as the brake coach.
Once the painting has been completed, the transfers can be applied. Then a coat of matt varnish followed by fitting of seats and glazing. The roof will, once again, be cut from a plastic venetian blind slat.
