On the road again
Train Truckers meets Scrapheap Challenge as TIM SHACKLETON improvises a rail/road convoy out of a pile of cast-offs.
For me, making creative use of castoffs (mine and other people’s) is a fascinating aspect of the hobby. I’m particularly pleased by detail touches such as the tail lamp on the ‘9F’, the securing chains, the dirt build-up behind the cab on the green Stobart unit, the green mould on the tender underframe and the equipment stashed in the well on the eight-axle low-loader. I still think I could have made more of an effort with the pipework linkages on the tractor-trailer units.
