PDSWJR Brake Van part 3 and wagon miscellany

Haven't really achieved much of late, more kind of working on bits and pieces when I've time.
The brake van has been painted and lettered. I'll give it a little weathering before it enters service and must put the stove chimney on and find a suitable guard to stand on the veranda.
The ECC wagon has turned out nicely, once I'd scraped all the old glue off and rebuilt it on a Craig Welsh underframe. In my youth, I'd managed to put the end door on upside down. It's only taken 35 years to correct!
Other wagons on the tinking table are an ABS LMS 5 plank and a Coopercraft V4 van. Lurking in the background is a Starfish, an open C and a couple of Private Owners. Some more Coopercraft opens didn't make it into the picture.
Otherwise it's on with the wiring of the next Cheddar board which is really slow progress. I may post a picture in that blog.

Lovely work, Andrew - especially the brakevan. Presumably, you simply haven't got round to removing the tiebar between the W irons? Not a feature of any 1923 spec' mineral I've seen (though that doesn't mean it never happened).

To be honest I hadn't checked, but will certainly bow to your greater knowledge! Ta.
