Title: Inspection Saloon Detail Parts
Post by: Luke Piewalker on June 15, 2016, 10:25:59 PM
I have recently acquired a Blue/Grey inspection saloon, and have detailed on end with pipes and dangly hook, and the plain hook at the other end. I still have two unidentified bits of plastic and I can't work out where they are meant to go!
Anyone got any pointers?

:NGF:

Got a picture of the pieces by chance?

You should have four parts

Dummy Hook and Screw Coupling (used when you have removed the standard coupling)

Dummy Hook (used when you use the standard coupling)

Vacuum Pipe curved, fitted in the left hand hole

Steam Pipe L-shape, fitted in the right hand hole
As you have a blue/grey inspection saloon and compare, it should not be fitted

That just leaves the ETH cable, which is NOT included

Thanks!

I guess the other one is an older style lamp.

I'll probably just leave it off for now.
