14xx at Scaleforum 2014

Whilst at Scaleforum 2014 last weekend I took the chance to give my GWR 14xx, an Airfix body with a High Level chassis, a run on the Risborough & District MRC's test track. After a strutting start it completed several laps, in both directions, without stoping. Earlier in the day I had spoken to Andrew Ullyott to see if I could give the loco a run on his 'Wheal Elizabeth' when the show started to run down on the Saturday, as you can see.

    That looks good. How hard was the High Level chassis to build?

    No real problems, but if I were building it now I would build the basic chassis and get it running before adding all the chassis fine details. Next on the production line is the pannier chassis for a 57xx but with CSB not beam compensation.
