GWR Pannier Tanks: 54/64/7400 Cab Complete

And we are back!
After a nice summer break work has been continuing at pace and the 54/64/7400 model has reached completion.

Here we see the model from the previous blog with the basic shape of the cab added.




 A view from the fireman's side looking in after all of the components have been built and added.


With the back wall removed  you can see how things are laid out. This is the 5400/6400 variant with the screw reverser, which was standard for autocoach working. The 7400's had a lever reverser and were not fitted with auto gear.


And finally a rear quarter view of everything completed.


Next time we'll take a look at the engine with various elements removed, added and changed to show what kind of options will be available.

  1. Looking very nice. Some 64XXs had the same square corner to the bunker/cab rear joint as the 74XXs had, will this be modelled too?.
