  1. Cab front and door handrails fitted. I used 0.45mm dia. brass wire for the door rails and 0.7mm dia. nickel silver wire for the cab front rails. Cheers Darius
  2. Buffer beam details fitted. Cheers Darius
  3. I replaced the rather crude mesh grilles provided with the kit with etched brass grilles from A1 Models. Did the same for the Class 27. Cheers Darius
  4. Secondary painting completed. Cheers Darius
  5. Initial painting completed. Cheers Darius
  6. I was aware of the fuel tank differences between the 33 and 27 but chose not to hack about the chassis too much at this stage. I’ve been collecting MTK for some time now and am building them for fun and to show that they can be built to a reasonable standard compared to the rtr Heljan examples - of which I have quite a few. At the end of the day I really enjoy building kits. Cheers Darius

  22. To which I would state that I was tought* English in the 20th century not the 17th. Cheers Darius * at Belfast Royal Academy.
