Right Track 4 -

Detailing and Improving RTR Locomotives & Coaches


 

Following on from the terrific success of the Right Track series, Tony Wright examines what can be done to make the high standard offerings from Hornby and Bachmann even better.

He takes you through the many stages in the process of turning these excellent models into something a bit special.

Modifications covered stretch from the most simple of improvements to the application of full detailing kits from Comet and Brassmasters.

Locomotives examined and improved in detail include a "County", "Britannia", "Black 5", and "Jinty" though many others are featured.

Coach modifications include Pullman Cars and Gresley and Thompson conversions utilising etched brass componenets from Comet and Mike Trice/Dart Castings.

Some coach conversions are so extensive that, if you are building coaches from kits, this DVD would be of great interest to you.

The 3 hours 15 minutes programme is designed to appeal to everyone from the raw beginner to the more experienced.

In short, if you want to improve your locomotives or coaches, this DVD is for you - whatever your experience.

What our customers say

You can view these comments in full on our Reviews page

I have just got my copy of the above DVD, and as a lone worker, for I'm not really a club type person, I am really impressed. I have hoped for many years this was something that would be done one day, and in my humble opinion your efforts cannot be surpassed.

The quality of the DVD is excellent, the photography is really great, and the Masterclass runs at a nice leisurely place, so you can take it all in without constantly replaying it.

At 120 minutes running time good value price wise as well!
