Battery Boxes removed on one side using Dremel and thin metal cutting disc plus needle files clean up. I have also fitted latest Bachmann NEM type bogies since photos.. As the floor is flush with the solebars on the Bachmann's I couldn't see any point in trying to change anything else.

What's the source of the breakdown truck, Mick?
