Build a Mason Bogie locomotive

In the December 2014 issue, Mike Garforth shows us how to kitbash a Mason Bogie, using a Piko locomotive as a starting point. Mike has generously provided 10 step-by-step PDFs detailing the project.

Also, despite our best efforts to compress these files, they are graphically intense and may take a few minutes to download.
