Mike 84C Posted July 22 Posted July 22 Runs nicely and looks good. Good luck with the glazing I found it very tedious! but I got there in the end. Painted mine green. 2 Quote

Painted mine green. Cheers,yes I built one a good few years ago and the cab front glazing was challenging. Something to look forward to. 1 Quote
enniscorthyman Posted 23 hours ago Author Posted 23 hours ago B109 is nearly done,with some touching up of the cab front orange curves.She runs well and looks nice in this livery along with Endas Pal vans and 30 ton brake van.The glazing on the cab areas was to be honest a nightmare,and I was going to redo but in the end I just left it. 20250812_204101.mp4 20250812_204237.mp4 12 Quote
Galteemore Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago Great effort - well done. Nice to see the homegrown range of Irish models on show too. As for the loco itself, you will always get satisfaction from building it and putting your stamp on it. To paraphrase an old Chinese dictum, the craftsman who makes a cabinet has a deeper joy than the collector who buys it. 2 1 Quote
