009 Festiniog GEM Coaches completed!

Last to go on are the roofs- no roof ventilators as there are vents atop the doors.

My usual roofing material is slats from a disused plastic venetian blind which unfortunately came apart.

They are secured with UHU glue and bound with rubber bands whilst curing.

Final thing to do is attach the bogies, already fitted with PECO couplings. The bogies are ex-N Gauge coach bogies- cheap and cheerful!

 

 

 

Checking that the couplings are at the correct height- Ready for service once Woody Lane or Gwartha Vellan Tramway emerges from winter storage!
