Sunny Sunday (4) - L&B Bogey coaches train .....

Well almost sunny, warm and a bit of cloud with an occasional hint of blue sky; good enough weather to give the L&B bogey coaches an inaugural run on the garden layout...

Before giving the coaches a run I altered one of my bogey brown vans to have an LGB coupling at one end, so I could pull the coaches...

Out on the garden layout...



CoachWorks - L&B Bogey Coaches (2) - finishing off..

All Third
Removing the old door handles, most of which were broken and replacing them with some new brass ones

With that done, glazing put back in and the roof put back on - the person who made the coach had secured the roof using screws which went in two of the ventilators - a neat solution
looking rather nice after its refurbishment - decals needed...(on order)

The Brake Composite

Replacing a couple of broken door handles,  fortunately I was able to save some I removed from the All Third coach and use them so I had matching handles...
After some careful paint matching some touching in done on the roof and coach body it now looks better
