Steve Beattie Class 15

Thank you Gareth for the above appraisal.

There is much to be taken out of it and I can guarantee you ...... will be. The 24 is progressing well and will be one of the first for re-release. There has been a lot of work done on many of the castings and resin printed parts as well as slight changes made to the brass etches in terms of making the build easier where possible. All classes looked at so far have had quite a comprehensive over view of the bogie build and I believe we have simplified this with numerous composite parts being borne from what was previously multiple parts. The overall bogie brass frameworks have also been improved upon.

I shall get some photos of some of the assembled upgrades posted in the near future.

I have also created a Highlander gearbox and motor mount which will suit all models also allowing the incorporation of delrin drive systems if the builder chooses to use them.

Many new moves and designs afoot whilst these kits make the transition from the former Steve Beattie Develipment kits to the Highlander Model upgraded versions. I will look forward to your input as we post up our progress.

Cheers

Toto
