By the end of Tuesday the fiddle yard boards had been painted to match.
Having prepared the Dingham couplings its time to apply them to some stock. The workman’s train is made up of some Dapol Mainline and City coaches. They are well made and the ‘footplate’ is cast in some sort of Mazak metal. It took Dremel and a burr to gouge out space for the coupling shank, which was then araldited in place. It now needs blackening.
