A few days ago I posted about the DCC chip that fried itself in my Lima Class 117 DMU. I have been looking at it with a view to putting a new chip in. However, with the power car dismantled it struck me that my plans from years ago to freshen it up were ripe to be carried out now!What brought this thought on was finding my chrome pen and just trying to colour in the door handles on the bodyshell so they were chrome as on the prototype.
The interior can be painted up too from that drab brown to the blue that the seats were uphuulsteed in later on in their lives.
To make running better I will add some additional pickups on the trailing bogie as I now have that in bits!
So that is the plan - it will be ironic if I actually complete it though!
