Class 42 Warship”Kelly”

My first diesel for preservation, a bit of work to do

get her presentable.

Roll out

The erecting shop has worked its magic and fitted the cylinder and coupling rods all that is left is for the testing section the fit the electronics and take her for a test run.

 

 

 

Pug No2

After a lengthy rebuild in the loco works pug No2 was rolled out of the paint shop this morning being pushed by her sister “Linda” to the final erecting shop to get the cylinder and coupling rods fitted.

 

No19 shortly after her arrival at Dunspendin October 2013

Now as No2 she is being pushed by her sister “Linda”

a marked difference to her arrival at Dunspendin still a lot to do in the final assembly shop.

Jiggy Jig

Not a lot happening mainly because I do not feel at all well. I did order some bits from Abbiegails (Hornby Spares) in the shape of a few screw packs and 4 sets of J94 coupling rods in red. It had given me time to contemplate the setting up of the point motors. This is the jig I came up with. Keep tuned to see if it was a good idea or not!
