No.10 Airfix/Dapol/Hornby 14xx

Instead of ballasting track, time can be spent playing with trains:



This is my 'new' Hornby 14xx.  However as received it was not a smooth runner and it been given a replacement Dapol chassis.  The Hornby model replaces an older and much loved Airfix model.



The suspect Hornby chassis has been given to my Airfix model.  As an experiment much time has been spent delving into my 'box of bits' and I have replaced the centre driven axle  (with the traction tyres) with a pair of plain wheels from an even older Airfix mechanism.  It is nearly very good.
