?
I don't like roundy roundys. Took me just 50 years to realise 🙄

I dont think the issue is with modelling the wrong era NN - it's not reading what he's after  ;)

QuoteDoes anybody have a drawing with dimensions of the end view of a mk3?  My plan is to detail a loco hauled coach end and to extend the gangway by means of a lamination of plotter cut black card shapes.

Ie detailing of an end of the coach to make it look better. Not just closer coupling. I'm also unsure of the cardboard bellows, which look a bit odd IMO, and also say specifically they're for Farish mk3s in the case of the ones you linked to.

That said... Can't help with drawings!

I know what you're getting at but it's this bit I was trying to help with, working on the assumption (probably wrongly) that Dapol and Farish have at least got their dimensions somewhere near each other :hmmm:

This would also fill the gaps on my HST formation. :searchingsign:

I don't know if this will help... but... if you use two Dapol short knuckle couplers the gangways near as damn it... touch.. due to the close coupling system fitted to their Mk3's.
