MOK 8F Almost All The Oil Boxes are Now Fitted

After several sessions at them I finally have all the oil boxes on the footplate aside from the large Silvertown types on the right hand side of the locomotive – they are the next job.

I started with the ones at the front which needed the associated pipework down inside the front of the frames under the smokebox.
Again I made use of the Finney cable clip etches.

Then I fitted the ones that sit flat on the footplate including those that sit just inside the frames in front of the firebox. Lastly I fitted the ones at the rear of the smokebox that have pipes passing through the footplate.

Finally I did the two that initially, I thought sat at the inside of the footplate. However upon closer inspection, they actually sit on a bracket mounted to the inside of the frames.
