SECR Maunsell E1 Class

A SECR E1 Class to diagram A7A designed to fit either the Farish 4P chassis with the cylinders and valve gear removed, or with some modifications can fit to the Dapol Schools chassis as well.

For the 4P chassis, there shouldn't be much need to change the chassis outside of making it into an inside cylinder model and adding extra weight/padding for the body to sit upon.

For the Schools chassis, one would still need to do the same as the 4P changes to the chassis, but the printed body would need some material removed from the tender to allow the Schools motor to stick partially out the top of the tender, which should be then covered by plasticard to allow loading with coal, only other change would be to drill out a hole for the drive shaft.

The body should be just about wide enough to allow either option, though filing might be required at the bottom edge of the tender body.
