The detail is all present and not missing, paint application is perfect and not marked. This is the tender motorised version which runs superbly at fast and low speeds backwards and forwards while using a gaugemaster controller. The engine also has it's original and correct box complete with service sheet. If anyone is interested please comment below or send me a PM, I am looking £45 post free (UK and Ireland) for this. Payment by cheque only please in GBP. I've included some pictures below, however if you want more pictures of the engine, or a video of the engine running then please do not hesitate to ask. Thanks Nelson

hello all, I came across this lovely gem of the spoil trains, quite excellent footage and very useful for modelling reference, enjoy! http://player.bfi.org.uk/film/watch-moving-motorways-the-spoil-train-to-belfast-1967/ Nelson

Hello Eoin, Thanks for the pic that's the exact same one that I was looking at some time ago, how do you rate it? Worth the money? Thanks

Looking good with the whitemetal, or pewter? Casting. How did you melt the metal, using one of the small modelling furnaces or an industrial one?

Very, very nice casting. Reminds me I must try it out some time soon.

Must have been a slow day in the BCC office today.

Lovely pieces of brass work, very nice.

Wonderful models 10/10

Bummer! Looks like I'll have to save up big time then nevermind thanks Harry.

Brilliant job, looks great.

Very nice work!

Guys, I know I'm not a moderator but can we PLEASE get back on topic which is about the UG and U class. Has anyone found out if you can buy them unpainted? I would rather paint my own to keep costs down.

Couple of good threads on RMweb.

Why not have things delivered straight to your house from the UK? Is there a law or something prohibiting this?

As far as I'm aware, etch primer is supposed to go on a little runny and look awful. It is then left to dry completely overnight, without touching it. The etch primer will then etch itself into the brass and give the desired finish. On the other hand other primers usually dry on the surface and don't grip to the material. Another thing that you need to be aware of is that some etch primer can damage plastics, so always try on a test piece first.

It's pretty safe to say it's for train simulator as quoted from the website "Parts may have been omitted or simplified to keep the model within acceptable limits for use within the game"

Thanks guys ^^

Hello everyone, It's been a while since I've updated this thread haha, this is due to a number of various personal issues but now they are done with I can get back to some modelling again however I did keep one project running in the background which was a commsion to weather 23 wagons (21 hoppers, 1 16ton and 1 brake van). I don't normally display commissions on my thread, but the owner gave me permision and i am more than happy to display them here. I weathered all of them using various enamel paints, weathering powders/pigments and washes, the desired finish was a worked one so I've varied the state of despair from wagon to wagon. I hope you enjoy the pics, Some wagons halfway through their weathering. The finshed wagons posed on the layout. Thanks Nelson

Is there any price indication in the catalogue of the new train sets? I'm sure it would cost a LOT. Thanks for the pics, interesting indeed.

Some one want to merge this thread with the other one?

Your very welcome Patrick, The only thing I can think of when it comes to the card kits are these, but only Cultra station and a "country station" are listed. https://www.dawson-hall.com/xcart/flatpacks#pageId=1
