I built a 'Jaffa Cake' liveried 419 a couple of years ago and it made up into a decent model, sufficient to encourage me to buy another kit, this time to be in Post Office red livery ( I had commisioned the transfers for this and a PO red 128 from Scale Model Transfers) and also using the ABC traction motors - 2 No, mainly as a trial run for using some in the future in a David Parkins 31 or 40.

I have now made up the powered bogie and am very pleased with the results so far - just need to work out the pivot arrangements, having made the motors 'non - spinning', that should not be a problem.
