  • Restoring a model locomotive is becoming one of my favorites in this hobby. This LNER K3 has been a real treat and I was able to practice weathering on it which was very satisfying.

    Great video fantastic value loco you bought and with your detailing you made it look so good and easy to do. the prototype video was really good with its variety of freight stock it was pulling round. i loved the powdered weathering you did too it gives it a very subtle blend of shades. by the way my favourite piece of rolling stock whether in model form or prototype is that larger or longer brake van that we saw in the video. Thank you for showing us your outstanding modelling advice and help with improving our own model railway stock collecting and servicing etc etc. It revitalised my own interest railway modelling that comes and goes but never ever fully leaves my fascination and interest. thank you so much.

    Hya Tris the k3 is a very good locomotive it just sounds like it needs a drop of oil on the gearbox a very easy job for you.
    The k3 used to be based at Hull Dairycoates where my Dad was a driver.
    I have a k1 in my collection.

    Hi Tris, excellent work, I was thinking of purchasing bargains to practice my skills on but I’m always a little frightened about what I’m undertaking and have got the skills to fix and repair. So thanks for the inspiration and happy modelling, or in your case “training” 😉

    Lovely job weathering it there Tris! Good to know though that you've had issues with yours, I've had no end of problems with mind. I've found they are dreadful at picking up power, I'm tempted to at some tender pickups to mine since it seems to hate points haha!

      Hi Triss.... I wouldn't, from experience, use IPA on any internal motor parts ...instead try the WD40 Specialist "contact cleaner" for the commutator, springs, and brushes. Don't spray the springs and brushes direct or you will blow them away.

    Snap. picked one up for similar money myself LNER version. several parts are listed on Bachmanns site despite it`s age, One thing I cant seem to solve at the mo is the valve gear seems to cause an issue once it`s on a curve and the wheel profile changes, it bobs like yours but much worse.
