·Hi Folks,
I have just completed a Model Irish Railways white metal body of a 141/181 class and very nice it turned out too.
I stuck under it a Athearn FW1500 chassis (for 121 class) but the wheel base is far too short and looks wrong with large space visable between the bogies and the front/rear ends. The Chassis is metal and would for me anyhow be difficult to extend lengthwise.
Can anyone suggest a suitable motorising unit for these so I can complete it more accutately, either a bogie motor unit or complete chassis!!
Also can someone point me in the direction on detail accesories such as hook and Linkages, suitable Hand Rail wire, Horns etc.
All the best
