3 becomes 2

After a long hard think, and deciding if 3 were really needed, I've disposed of one of the 3 NG15s. Namely NG 134. The main reasons behind getting rid of it are the fact that the Chassis is going to cost a good £100 that could be spent on other things and the print ended up with so many flaws that it isn't worth using/keeping. This just leaves No.124 and 17 (both now equipped with DCC chips) as the running pair which is something I can live with. Appropiate Nameplates/builders plates are on order via Narrow Planet along with 2 sets of Cab window frames and side grills.



On the upside, both the survivors are working perfectly at pretty much any speed which is unheard of compared to most of the engines I've built.....

Cheers,

Jon
