I've also built the roofs. There's some colour variation in the parts, but that can be explained away as weathering.
BR class 08, 08805 at Tyseley depot, Birmingham, seen in its ficticious LMS red livery adjacent to the main depot entrance on the Warwick Road.
The TYS based Jocko was named "Concorde" and was given its original BR number of 3973.
It is still extant in 2020, painted in Railfreight grey and is utilised as the depot shunter at Soho.
It is seen coupled to an ancient blue tank wagon, used for Etheylene Glycol, or antifreeze.

Hughes designed (under the direction of Fowler) mixed traffic locomotive of the London Midland Scottish Railway.
This particular engine was built at the LMS works at Crewe in 1927.
It was a visitor the SVR on the 4th/5th/6th November 2016.
Two coupled cars. The bogie pivots through a 5L Technic beam which acts as a bar coupling between the cars. This allows it to pivot independently of the cars and does not interfere with either the train's progress through curves, etc, or the articulation of car bodies. I have tested this on a small test track and it works rather well. Hopefully adding weight as the train is built up will not interfere with it's operation too much.

Cool like that.

Things get a little more complex with articulated vehicles. For the geometry to work unassisted you would need to have two attachment points on the bogie to ensure that everything centres nicely. I am not really a fan of this because it would impart movement to the coach bodies directly from the bogie, which is not really what happens with real articulated trains. In most instances, these vehicles would have one shared pivot point for both coach body ends with the bogie moving independently underneath. As a result, it needs some help with centring which is achieved using a rubber band.

The bodyshell taking shape. Due to the lack of resources, I am not including any interior as I have no idea which coach serves what purpose and what the layout might have been. I think I can get away with this given the lack of windows.

The last shot before the spectators intrude - managing to get just the edge of them here. Some persuasion was necessary to keep the view from the road clear.
Fresh air and sunshine does a body good.
