    You do need to experiment with resins to find one that can flex enough without snapping. I have some CK Prints wagons and they are ok with putting wheels in.

    4 wheel wagons don't usually need rocking W-irons and underframes could be made with a more flexible resin to get the wheels in.

    Very useful as the tops are not seen so much.

    Hornby Hand Crane. These are old with black base and red or yellow crane. I have painted the whole thing grey and then weathered it. Removed the oversized chains and replaced with 0.5mm string. Little metal hand cranks have also been added.

    That's just perfect, love the roof detail and the weathering.

    Can I ask, do the 3 x 20ft floors need to be removed to put containers on? Can these wagons hold 45ft and 30ft containers? And can the little lugs for holding containers be placed where needed?

    There's not much on it. Give it a go and see. He who dares.

    You could try washing up liquid and hot water, it should come off if you rub it with you finger nail. Anything more could mark the surface and avoid the numbers/lining. Do you have a picture of the loco?

    I just use normal primer and it works fine Halfords primer is very expensive so I buy mine in the car parts shop, it's half the price.

    Lots of info there and a lovely model of the signal cabin. Thanks for sharing.

    Up close shows every thing, but it won't be seen. I usually cut as close to the decal as possible so the carrier film is less visible but the light catches the top edge.
  24. popeye
    That looks good, can we see it close up?
  25. popeye
    Another beautiful build That's why your ranked as a grand master.
