A bit more progress with HL. The chassis still has a bit of a tight spot which I'm at a loss to explain. I can see no obvious cause but it's probably some tiny error of geometry and it's really only noticeable at very slow speed so I'm not messing with it any more for fear of making it worse. Most of the detailing has now been added to the shell and it's just about ready for the Halfords livery. The photos are useful in showing up the little gaps that the naked eye doesn't see (or pretends not to 😄) and these will need a bit of filler... ...and here's the scruffy underbelly where all the solder hides. The brake rodding is pretty approximate and you'll see I've only fitted brakes to the rear axle. At the front, it's all a bit tight with the slidebars and what have you so I left them off, reasoning that they can barely be seen anyway. Some lead weight has been added to the chassis, front and back. There's some in the bodyshell too. A first run on the shuttle plank Hawthorn Leslie .mov Alan -

I went to see The Pogues play in Burton on Trent, in a converted bowling alley, around the early 80s. For logistical reasons, we arrived quite early and waited in a fairly reasonable pub. After a few minutes, we became aware that the jukebox had no consistent theme and played stuff from every possible musical genre. As this went on, we started to think that everything had been covered, heavy metal, pop, bubble gum, progressive rock, light classical, country & western, musicals, folk, skiffle, rock and roll, blues, jazz - everything... There had been about twenty completely unrelated records when I said, "That must be it, the only thing missing is Slim Whitman". The next record was "Rose Marie"... I was then accused of having set this up somehow.
