Silver Fox BR Swindon Class 126 DMU Conversion Kit
This kit is designed to convert three standard BR Mk1 coaches into a BR Swindon Class 126 DMU.
This kit includes:
- Precision cast resin cab for the leading end
- Laser cut cab for the intermediate end
- Supplementary interior parts for the cabs and buffet
car
- Laser cut thin plastic replacement overlay sides featuring
scored doors
- Window glazing
- Vinyl self-adhesive for windscreen wipers, grab rails,
grab and door handles
- Exhausts
- Full set of underframe and solebar components
- Parts to modify the BR1 bogies to give a more
accurate representation of the DMU bogies
- Large round buffers
- Brass wire for toilet tank fillers at the intermediate cab end
The donor coaches required are:
2 x Second Open/TSO/SO x 2
1 x Corridor Composite/CK
Bachmann or the current Hornby coaches are recommended, as these have the correct pattern gangways.
To fit the overlays, all raised detail on the donor coaches will need to be removed from the coach sides and a strip will need to be removed where the replacement glazing will fit.
On the two SO coaches, the ends will need to be
removed to fit the cabs.
The underframe, coach end and bogie detail will also
need to be modified.
A suitable powered mechanism is also required. We recommend the Hornby Class 121 or the Replica motorised chassis as being suitable to use.
Paint and transfers are also required; suitable transfers are available from us, please see our separate listings.
The final photos show each of the three different
coach types made up using Replica donor parts.
The Replica parts and finished model are not included,
these photos are only for illustrative purposes only.
Full instructions and diagrams are provided.
Kit will be securely packaged for safe transit.
Please note : we also produce the buffet car version of this unit, just message us if you require this
