Nice work Barl, looks great!
-
Fantastic work throughout your workbench Richie. Unbelievable patience and attention to detail is very apparent.
-
I don't think I'd eat anything out of that restaurant car, the hygiene doesn't look the best!
Great work Anto!

Looks fab... is that a Corgi model?
Thanks. No, it's actually a 1:76 scale (OO gauge) Airfix kit. I tried to put up more pics of the build stages but it wouldn't let me. Files were too big apparently.

Thanks for all the kind words guys, it's much appreciated!

They look great Anto, your really getting a handle on the rust effect.

It's really easy this way; remove the ends of the railings attached to the cabs only. Leave the rest of the railings in place. They don't need to be removed!!! Lift the non-radiator end cab straight up - you might need to pry it up slightly with a small screw driver away from the body. Then get your finger under the body shell roof (now that the cab is off) and just lift it straight up. Again you can use a screw driver to lever the body up for more control. The body and remaining cab will come up together because they are attached by a blanking plate underneath the roof radiator. This method is really easy and fast. I've done it loads of times with no damage at all and don't have to remove the railings. Works every time I guarantee it!

Hi all how is the white stripe done is it paint or is a tape and if so what type thank you and every thing looks great
The lower white stripe was already on the model, I just painted on the orange and added the upper white stripe. I used spray cans and painters tape.

Are you thanking me for the loco or the women =))=))
Will there be women?!
-
Looks like it was caught up in hurricane Sandy!
I like my loco's like my women; DIRTY!!!
I have Anto to thank for that one!

Can I ask what make is the baggage car?
Ye sorry, it's actually a Bachmann Branchline BR MkI Brake Van. It's available from Hattons in the bargain section.

Lovely work there Anto. Those freight 071's are 100%! An artist and a true gent. I love my 141/181's you did for me and when I get an IR 071 I'll be sending her straight to you. Always helpful and great quality work and well priced for the time and detail you put in.
-
Thanks Eamonn for those detailed pics, fantastic. Is the cab lighting a standard factory feature? I didn't know about that.
-
Good deal
-
Cool, can you pick up containers with it?
-
Even though its the wrong scale? Won't the 00 containers be too deep?
-
That's the one!
-
I think the Belfast Model Shop have a sound decoder for an 071, probably ready right now. It's most likely a Zimo. I'm sure I saw a demo video of it somewhere in a black non-painted prototype 071
-
Thanks mayner, I think as long as its the mast type and not the telescopic jib type it should look alright. I wonder if the Wathers one will fit a OO container?

The Walthers one is in HO scale, some modification might be required...
