cnw6847's 009 Workbench

[cnw6847]

To clear some bits off my workbench i've finished to ex-works the set of Roco HOe timber wagons. I've OO'd them up a bit by adding a wider timber deck, ends and new stanchions. Again they were designed to allow the Hornby Skaledale timber loads to fit. I've painted them into my fictional Scottish railway livery. Seen here with the red and yellow loco I bought from the Norfolk & Suffolk open day, the Murtalbahn inspired timber wagon and a drewery kit bash by Mark Howe.

The B&BR paint shops have been quiet of late but the opportunity to purchase a lightly used Bachmann Baldwin very cheaply has got them active again. 
A fairly straight forward job so far to remove the number, gloss varnish the areas needed, decals applied and varnish to seal. Weathering, crew and some bits n bobs to follow.
A 3D printed cattle wagon body is also being painted and i'm aiming for a weathered effect. Theres more to be done aswell as mounting it on a Peco chassis.

Looking good. Those log wagons look very neat and well built.

Thank you.

I've found a photo of an HOe one next to a converted one prior to painting for comparison.

B&BR no13 ready for its debut at our show in Barsham on Saturday.
The driver has found somewhere to store his bike, wonder how long it will stay there.
