Class 121 nears completion


Nearly finished DMU, note the Ilfracombe destination

My class 121 detailing project is nearing completion and I got around to reassembling the whole model yesterday. I learnt a valuable lesson with this project, in that, with all the underframe and body painted and lighting kit soldered in and assembled, the body did not fit back onto the underframe!!! Why I did not check this before painting the body and adding on various fiddly and damageable parts I do not know.
Anyway, today will be spent trying to get all this fit together. Hopefully, a more successful update later today with a successfully reassembled DMU.....


Note the bad fit of the body onto the underframe and the light bleed
