Bogie flat wagons made from spare Hornby LMS coach chassis, Bachmann LMS bogies, plasticard, card and wire. The rails and sleepers are from gash code 100 track. Cheers Darius

Much modified Silver Fox NIR MV Class. Modifications include:- - Separate wire cab front and door handrails. - Lamp irons (staples). - Buffer beam hosiery. - Cab access ladders to bogies. - Remove Copydex glue that Mr Silver Fox uses everywhere and use a proper adhesive. - Chassis and body weathering.

Not sure but it sounds like something that the Lima of that time would do. Cheers Darius

I built the Silver Fox resin bodied version a year or so ago, using a cut down Lima Class 55 chassis. Cheers Darius

In a moment of vanity I put Darius43 and RMWeb into the AI mode of a Google search. Apparently I am a “They” and am keen on building Modern Talbot Kits (MTK). Who knew. Cheers Darius -

Some Silverfox Models “Dutch Vans”. As delivered with chassis weathering applied and the bogies reassembled*.

Some “interesting” 6-wheeled coaches. Look to be hand repainted French coaches - possibly Jouef/Playcraft? Cheers Darius Edit - on closer inspection you can see the printing layers, especially on the roof. Not the smoothest of prints…

Wizard Models sell the former Comet range of brass coach sides, some of which may be suitable for a conversion or two… Whilst not brass, I have used MTK punched aluminium coach kits to make ex LMS/NCC coaches… Cheers Darius
