Kit box content:

Build log start from floor and seats

I use real 1.mm glass to make windows, is a box of microscope slides.
I prepared a frame to cut the glass.

I have adjusted microscope glass with a thin wood strip as to fit inside frames, casually my glass microscope slides have one side 1mm less than frames, I chose to fill it.

OcCre Kit windows are basically glued, I have tried to make it openable.

I also add some details to walls

A really nice model - something to be proud of

 

[christian Wright]

running quality is not bad.. shake just a little, I have to check bushings on my motor unit and learn more about how to make worm gears..
also Soller have a handmade motor unit quite similar, a littlebit better..
you see here..

It’s obvious you have put a lot of effort into this model, and I must say the quality shines through, you must be an extremely patient modeller, well done 👍

Very nice.

there is something deeply satisfying in making models of wooden rolling stock out of wood. I used to use it a lot back in my gauge 1 and gauge 3 days and although the models took a lot longer than the stock I made out of plastic the results were always more worthwhile

is the kit still available?
