New kid on the block

I've just finished a new loco for service on Ventnor West. I haven't found any pictures of an E1 at Ventnor West, but apparently they were used on the branch to pull ballast trains. This model is built from the trusty Wills/Southeastern Finecast kit. It's fitted with Romford drivers and a Mashima motor, and it is finished as No. 1 "Medina".
One week to go before the layout's debut at the Farnham MRC exhibition in Aldershot. This week has been spent doing lots of little detailing jobs, cleaning loco wheels, etc. etc. Whilst periodically playing with (no, testing!) the layout to reassure myself that it still works.
Meanwhile, here are a few photos of new additions and latest work.
Come and say hello if you come to the show in Aldershot. This will be the layout's exhibition debut, attached to the end of Mark Pretious's model of Merstone.
