Building Dolgoch... by destroying a Bachmann Thomas & Friends Rheneas:  Backhead Detailing
Channel: Videos from an English Coffee Drinker
Date: 13/11/2023

Having butchered and stripped the paint from the footplate of the Bachmann Thomas & Friends Rheneas model it's time to start adding some details. The first step is the boiler backhead which was completely plain on the original model. With the help of a photo in L.T.C. Rolt's book Railway Adventure I've now added a rough representation; it doesn't need to be highly detailed (thankfully) as all you'll really see is a the rough outline through the doorway past any crew I add.

A few things I mention during the video that need links are
