Just the face to do now… Cheers Darius Lovely job Darius, but are you not worried that the finer details like the handrails etc. are going to suffer when the friend's grandson gets his hands on them. Depends on what age the grandson is I suppose. He could be in his twenties or thirties for all I know Edited June 1 by derek 1 1
Darius43 Posted June 1 Author Posted June 1 He’s a bit younger than 20, but knows his trains and treats them well Cheers Darius 3

Modifications include:- - Separate wire cab front and door handrails. - Lamp irons (staples). - Buffer beam hosiery. - Cab access ladders to bogies. - Remove Copydex glue that Mr Silver Fox uses everywhere and use a proper adhesive. - Chassis and body weathering. Cheers Darius 5

Darius43 Posted 4 hours ago Author Posted 4 hours ago Bogie flat wagons made from spare Hornby LMS coach chassis, Bachmann LMS bogies, plasticard, card and wire. The rails and sleepers are from gash code 100 track. Cheers Darius 4
Mol_PMB Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago Excellent and creative - and what an atmospheric setting to see them in. Rather reminiscent of this photo... 105 at Magheramorne loop | One of the more elusive MVs, MV 1… | Flickr 2
