The Piko BR55
TT
Upgrading the Piko G7.1 BR55
The missing piston rod tube is on order from Gmaster, whilst Fleischmann offers reasonable electric lanterns from their BR91 although oversized they actually function and are direct replacement for the Piko oil lanterns.
Pipework will be ordinary copper electrical wire but the smokebox door handle wheel will be a Weinert casting.
The reason why I like this particular model is both cost, realism and reliability. Fettling it will keep me out of mischief.
