Wrightlines 7mm Narrow Gauge White Metal Kit rebuild
Hi Brendan,I might attack the beastie next week and see if some metal removal from the valve gear bottom and the rods along with some additional spacers would get it lurching down the track Bagnall-fashion.Could increase the selling price by at least 500% (well, maybe 50%).
Sold some old Langley kit N-locos Saturday, plus all the white metal detailing, seems to be a market around here. There is a big train show next month in Baltimore (more trade than layouts), the Bagnall could be making an appearance on the White Elephant stall.
Fun building it, I had forgotten how easy building in O compared to HO/OO is. As I said, an opportunity to hone the white metal soldering techniques.
