This value-for-money detailing kit offers an excellent way to enhance the accuracy and realism of the Bachmann London Transport Red Pannier Tanks. It addresses a couple of key missing details, making it a must-have for model London Transport modellers looking to replicate the authentic look of these steam locomotives as they ran on the network.

The kit includes three 3D printed resin parts: a tripcock apparatus for the left-hand running plate, and two screen curtains for the cab. The tripcock is a crucial safety feature unique to the London Transport system. If a train passed a danger signal, a lineside apparatus would “trip” the tripcock, triggering the brakes and preventing a potential accident. Adding this detail to your model brings an additional layer of realism, especially for those who appreciate operational accuracy.

The two screen curtains serve as blowback screens, which were essential when the locomotives worked in tunnels. The screens helped protect the crew from smoke and steam blowback during underground operations, adding a historically significant detail to your model.

All parts are 3D printed in plain resin, allowing you to paint them with acrylic or enamel paints. They can be easily attached to your model using cyanacrylate (super glue) or epoxy resin adhesives. While the kit doesn’t include the driver figure or the locomotive itself, it is an ideal accessory for those who already own the Bachmann Pannier Tank model and want to enhance its authenticity.

Overall, this beautifully rendered detailing kit provides an affordable and practical way to upgrade your model, adding both aesthetic and functional details that make your London Transport Red Pannier Tank truly stand out.
