Rainy day project...
Having naff-all else to do today I've been fiddling with my Reko BR41 project... It's coming along though there's still plenty to do. Steph

Nice one Steph. Is this a bash of the Fleischmann model? Dave.

Hi guys, Sorry for the delay in replying... :roll: It actually started off as a Roco model of a DB Umbau BR41. I decided it would be easier to fiddle with the Roco one than a Fleischmann version. Weinert do a couple of useful parts (including the whitemetal apron plate in the photo) which makes it a bit of a no-brainer. It also means that I can use the Weinert BR41 wheelset, which is designed for the Roco model. It's moved on a little bit since the picture was taken and now sports a few more brass parts - I scratchbuilt the framing under the cab from a few bits of scrap sheet. Worth doing to the stock Roco model in DB oultine too, I think. Steph
