Hornby Black 5

I've got one of the old tender-drive Black 5's from the mid 90s, and would like to upgrade it. I don't mind keeping the tender-drive, but does anyone know where I could find a replacement chassis for the loco, with higher-detail valve gear?

I've heard of this model railway repair company in Kent which sells all sorts of hornby parts. It also sells old triang parts if you're interested. it'll probably have some black five parts.

If you're interested then it's called East Kent Models and I've got a phone number which is 01227 770777.
Forgive me if it doesn't work. I'm getting this from an old leaflet. but give it a try all the same.
The address is 89, high street, whitstable, kent. CT5 1AY
Hope you get somewhere
