Hi fellas.
Well I suppose I will have to admit that I have been putting this one off a little bit, the more I looked at it the more problems I seemed to find but here goes lets see what can be made of it.

Once most of the model was stripped back to the bacic chasis I started going round tightening things up, the above picture shows a bit of a problem the pins that hold the bogies on had plenty of thread lock on them and needed to come off so get to the countersinks underneath that were very loose, a bit of heat from the blowtorch soon had the pins free and everything put back in place.
Then I noticed the rear bogies on one side did not travel back as far as the other side did see the next picture.

it turned out thet when the bogie moved on its pin it was catching on the brackets below, 5 mins with the power file sorted this out quick style.

In the next picture the parts are re painted and you can see that the travel now matches the other side.

Finally a picture of the chasis all tightened up and with a coat of etch primer.
