    Wow ..... what a kit. No wheels or anything so I'll still need to take out a mortgage on this one but a beautiful kit with amazing cast parts etc.

    Pictures to follow

    Cheers

    Superb:worship::worship::worship::worship:, there are couple of builds on the Guild forum which highlight one or two things to be aware of when building these.

    I wonder if all the MOK kits came from the same collection that Ellis bought?

    And has gone back light handed :avatar:

    Now I am looking forward to seeing this build, I've always had a soft spot for the 9F.

    Better start saving for those wheels tho'

    Maybe I could turn it into a static power generator. Think of the savings on wheels. Probably around the £200.00 mark.

    Please nobody tell me the exact amount as you'll only depress me. ...... then there's the motor and gears....... :facepalm:

    Should have went to spec savers.:hammer:

    Just received a set of MOK wheels for this kit from Ellis Clark. Just like the original loco kit ....... you have to see these. A beautiful wheelset. I'll post up the obligatory pictures later.

    Cheers
