Just for the record, the Horncastle set was formed from the coach sections of railmotors 5 & 6, built by Kitson with the carriages from Birmingham RCW.  The Essendine pair came from the Avonside / Bristol RCW railmotors 7 & 8.  The first pair, Nos. 1 & 2, were built by the GNR themselves and the carriage portions  featured the "Gresley" high elliptical domed roof, apparently the first use of this profile.  These, as articulated coaches, ran in Yorkshire for some time, but were scrapped, as someone noted, in 1937, after being damaged in an incident at Hatfield. GNR railmotor numbers 3 and 4 were reserved for petrol passenger railcars, although only one, No 3, was ever acquired by the company.

Nice work. What does the CSI refer to in your signature?

Thanks

CSI go's back I think to 2007 when a editor in a mag(not any of the big 3) said that the modelling coming from some well known hull modellers was Crude, Slapdash & Implausible at the time I was soldering up kits for one of them & we all tuck the mikey by putting CSI then the town we lived it in are signature? so I got CSI Huddersfield
