Wanted these three as a set, it's taken about 10-14 years to buy the last coach to complete it due to extreme lazyness 🤣

Picked up an incomplete Pines Express train pack off Ebay, it was missing the loco which is perfect and I have a black 5 I needed the carrages for 😊

Cheers, I did consider it but I don't think I have the right technique at the moment for it as I would want it to have an out the factory look, any imperfection would annoy me. When I figure out how to do that, the I might give it a go 😊

Nice bargain

Dave at Littleton @daveatlittleton.bsky.social · Jul 7

Good work Henry, I'm sure you'll find a solution. Maybe cut short thin strips from some soft plastic packaging that you can curl round and insert inside the mount to fill the slack

Good stuff, taking it all apart is a good opportunity to service the loco as well 👍
