A Card model of No 400 in "O" scale part 4


The model has been undercoated and as usual the undercoat shows up quite a few flaws that weren't obvious beforehand as these two photos show. Especially the area above the motorman's window in the second photo. So a bit of work to do now and then a second undercoat to see how it looks.

The headlights were made by winding glue soaked copy paper around the shank of a drill and soaking in shellac when the glue was dry. The end of the tube was then sanded to the required shape and cut off on an angle to suit the nose of the tram.
