    Britannia Pacific Gatwick Express GLV with additional brass rod cab front pipework and MJT fuse boxes added by me. Also repainted the cab front hosiery, replaced the chunky tension lock couplings with thinner NEM types and weathered the chassis. Cheers Darius

    Chivers Finelines 6-wheel LMS Fish Van kit assembled as a BR Stores Van. I wasn’t keen on the dummy cut-off centre wheels that came with the kit so I removed the “pinpoints” from some 14mm dia. wheels and fitted them to a scratch-built (from plasticard) “caddy”. This allows the centre wheel to move transversely and the wagon happily negotiated 3rd radius curves. Cheers Darius

    Another ex-LMS parcels van from the Mainline model. Cheers Darius

    Canopy completed and weathered. The brass rod rainwater downpipes also act as dowels to mount the canopy to the baseboard. Cheers Darius

    Refuelling point canopy under construction using Plastruct I section and 1mm/0.5mm plasticard sheet. Now waiting for channel section purlins and corrugated metal sheeting to arrive. Cheers Darius

    Received my Vol.2 from the RPSI yesterday. Wonderful stuff. Cheers Darius

    The folk in the know on RMWeb pointed out that the chassis was about 2mm too wide so I set about narrowing it… Cheers Darius

    Mainline BR parcels Van with new metal wheels, glazing, window bars and couplings - otherwise oob - plus some weathering. Cheers Darius
  24. Darius43
    More ballasting today - the lift-out section above the helix - and some buffer stops. The buffer stops need a spot of weathering to tone down the “redness” and the track needs to be dirtier. Cheers Darius

    Lima LMS GUV repainted into BR blue. Plus new wheels, couplings, cleaned up undergibbons, glazing and glazing bars. Cheers Darius
