I modify the old Triang R.660 "Top Tank" clockwork loco body to fit on the old Lima American Porter 0-4-0T loco chassis, to make something more appealing. I've also used a Welso Brimtoy clockwork LNER Y4 body, on a modified Lima Porter chassis, to create perhaps the only OO electric model Y4 loco in the UK. I fail to understand that when everyone else created fictional freelance bodies for their OO clockwork kids toy locos, Welso Brimtoy decided to make a scale correctly detailed model body shell of a real loco.
Could put the H0 lunch coach or whatever in background for a slight forced perspective effect.
@@sparkshot brilliant idea, didn't think of that
