QUOTE I couldn't tell you which dimension is wrong, but it simply looks wrong....
I compared the major dimensions on the Airfix and Hornby incarnations of the Scot chimney. There is very little in it. I think the difference is that the Airfix chimney has vertical sides whereas on the Hornby the base of the chimney is slightly wider so the sides are not quite vertical. There's a head to head photo in the review.

QUOTE and the Airfix is right??
As I said in the review, I don't have drawings so I can't tell. There was another thread on the Forum where some members expressed the opinion that the Airfix gave a better impression. Personally, I find it hard to tell from the photos I have looked at.

Given the acknowledgements that Brassmaster receive in books on LMS locomotives, I would trust their replacement too. Whether or not I actually go ahead with a "chimney job" remains to be seen. I don't feel that brave at present.
