Handles and droplights

 

Let's get back to the wooden coaches. 

Door and grab handles are nicely moulded, whitemetal fittings. A little fragile, but there are spares provided. There's very little flash too. A quick coat of brass colour paint and they are ready to be fitted into holes drilled in the sides. 

With the body painted, the droplights, which have been stained with a water-based wood stain, are fitted and the model glazed. A bit more plastic would have been appreciated here, but with care, and plenty of Deluxe Speedbond, all goes in nicely.
