Eureka 38 Chassis with Body removed for painting

I removed the body so as not to get any overspray on the the green paint. slightly weathered my Eureka 38 wheels.Once other projects finished I will add LED markers and a tender light,as seen on railpage.

The Real 1033

This is what the model will look like once finished.1033 is located at the Thirlmere Rail heritage museam.My 10class will be Neeburn's shed shunter.

Chassis and motor testing

1036 takes shape and take a run on the 90' TT

Motor aligned to rear axle and motor bracket soldered to side frames,had to file half the wheel shaft bearings to fit the worm gear.Wheels fitted and correctly and quartered drive wheels.right side leading.Cut 2 connecting rods from fret and fitted to pins.Blue plastic on drive pins are,will hold the con.rods on whilst testing running capabilities of wheels/axles ,to make sure nothing is binding.So Far so good.next to finish brake rigging and pickups and then put power to motor test and finish by etch painting.1036 will run on DCC(nscale decoder to fit) so the wheels cannot bind or the decoder will go pszszszt.

I'm building "Fanny" 23 ex1036
