Old Hornby Coach - New Bachmann Bogies

[ajcooper4]

I mentioned this project in an earlier post. Since then I have been working on the best technique to upgrade some lovely old Hornby coaches so that they will run on my Peco 75 track without fouling across the points.

I have now done this and they run really smoothly. A friend suggested I make a help guide and post it here.

Therefore I am very happy to share what I have learned in the hope it may help other modellers.

It is in pdf format which won't load here - as far as I can work out - and has both text and photographs of one of the coaches I worked on.

I'll post it here as a series of images.
