More chassis mileage for the NG15 tonight, attracting a lot of interest on the Greenock & District Model Railway Club test track and admiring comments about the Bowaters Models body even though it’s just a rough test print.

With a new keeper plate and pick ups fitted the NG15 chassis can get some running-in laps of the test track.

First update on the NG15 chassis in a while.

I’ve replaced some of the Farish 08 crank ‘pins’ with the screws from the 8F which meant very carefully opening out the plastic cranks with a 0.6mm drill.

Running much smoother with less ‘play’ now.

My, that was a quick week! And this is a very slow goods train 😆

Just 3 weeks until we get to take Minffordd out again to Falkirk and I’m excited already!
