Another great kit from Jim. He says the sides are very long to bend, but that is the only hard part about this kit. I didn't have bending bars long enough, so bent it bit by bit using a shorter bar on one end, then move it to the other etc. Bogies are soldered together using 145 solder which is fine as long as you are careful, reduce the iron temperature down to say 200, and tin the mating surfaces before bringing them together. The bulk of the casting prevents melting. It looks superb once suitably weathered and runs very nicely.
