More things to put on the shelves

I am not sure what the original thread I posted these in was, but I made files for 3D printing the plastic components of the coupling a few years ago

You should be able to get away with just printing an "out" section and use the rest of the original components.
I have a website where I have been writing about and photographing many of the sets and pieces that I find interesting.

Thanks Mr Duck 👍
Do you like rolling stock? I know I sure do, especially coaches. As my LNER collection has kept growing I've wanted to get some more coaches and recently I had the chance to pick up 4/5 Gresley Teaks from Hornby's 2023 range:

-R4826A (Brake composite corridor)
-R4827A (Corridor First)
-R4829A (Buffet car)
-R4830A (Baggage/ utility/ full brake/ bogied pigeon van)
Unfortunately The images don't show the finish properly, the coaches are at a much higher resolution and they have a fantastic glossy-satin finish

They sure are! ... Very expensive though, hopefully I can find some second hand in the future!

The first purchase of the year!! A brand new Bachmann LNER lined green V2.
The full RRP of £230 is not at all reasonable there are a few to many small issues to justify it, however I was able to pick mine up from TMC for 40% off the RRP at just under £140 witch is a great price for the model. It did need some oil as it had been in storage for over 2 years, but it runs acceptably now.

Love the big spoked wheels 👍
The Rapido Wisbech And Upwell Train Pack, Has got to be one of the best recent releases in oo.
The J70 is finally making an appearance in it's C53 GER form both in the original pre 1919 GER lined Brown (It's more of a golden yellow) or in the pos 1919 GER lined crimson

My version of the pack is the original GER brown and when it comes to the C53 it's fantastic... The weight of 172g is ridiculous for the size and coupled with the powerful motor it's incredibly powerful; The finish is also the best I've ever seen and the FULLY DETAILD INTERIOR is so impressive; details even include the real chains on the side.

The coaches are also beautiful and incredibly fragile, in fact they were the main reason for me to get this pack as trying to do those balconies with any type of 3d printer is most certainly impossible!

Those are beautiful D9D very nicely detailed too. Are there interior details in those coaches?
Yep! No. 7 is the composite and so there is a division wall between the two clases. The coaches feature moulded clear bulbs wich don't light up, wood panelling on the roof, a depiction of the leather grab handels on the roof and metal blue/ green benches with metal feet, wich make up most of the models weight of 70g (no 7) or 67g (no 8)

And if you were to buy the preserved variant for no 8 you would have the buffet interior
