More Gresley Gangwayed Stock

In response to a request from a member, I have added the LNER Gresley 61ft 6ins D23 Third Corridor to the existing Gresley stock.

I withdrew the other Gresley stock with the intention of modifying the STL files to fit smaller (250mm) print beds, as I had designed them for my Snapmaker A350.
It is possible to sectionalise/cut down the size of STL files using some slicers (e.g Bambu Studio which I use) and the request for the All Third came from a Bambu Lab user who is willing to deal with oversize files in this way and had done so to print my D143 BCK files.

I am, therefore, providing the D23 as just two  STL files (one each for the corridor and compartment sides) as per attached screenshots. The ends, lavatory window vents and other parts are in a separate accessory pack.

If anyone wishes to make use of these, then message me via this forum and I will send a download link.

John.

My fellow Members, ask not what your Society can do for you, ask what you can do for your Society.

I have added  two more 61ft 6ins gangwayed carriages to the inventory.

1) BTK D212, an end vestibule brake third corridor.
2) FO D4, an open first with doors inset from the sides (these were branded "Restaurant Car" when built).

The screenshots of the OpenSCAD files show the full sides as they would print ... details (such as the window vents) are in the separate detailing packs. The close-up shots shows the inset doors of D4 and inset van section of D212..

The full list of Gresley coaches available for the personal use of G3 Society members is:
D4 FO      D5 SFO (semi-open first)    D23 TK  D113 PBV    D143 BCK    D167 Buffet      D212 BTK
(All above are 61ft 6ins stock).

D111/154 PBV    D140 FK    D182 TO    D216 TO      D217 BTO
(The above are 52ft 6ins gangwayed stock)

4-wheel D120 PBV.

P.S. I may (eventually) do a kitchen/restaurant car since D4 and D5 were usually coupled to a kitchen car to form a dining set.
