Getting Narrow M... ähh... Gauged

[Schraddel]

Hello,

@ Don,
i am not so impressed, i think there it could be improved still more.



The boilershell is removed again and you can see fastening of the cab interior by the means of two tiny screws.





One bugbear I have to deal with; the driving axles are not spring-loaded in the frame. There also are no discrete axle bearings, instead the axles are supported direct into the material of the frame.And of course there is no sprung action. Bad for electric pick up and uneven track.
To attenuate this I made springs out of some pieces of bronze sheet (0.25mm thickness). There is a little vertical bearing play and so I hope this will work to take a little sprung action.





With the last driving axle the same, here somewhat hidden under the wires.






The female plug above the motor is for the wires for the headlight.
The counterpart has got an resistor for the LED and was carefully shrinked
