We are biding our time for a take over, when by the law of the Meads and Persians all engines will be painted crimson lake I suppose that's what you get when you privatise the railways.......any old Tom, Dick, Harry, Mede or Persian making up rules.

RMweb Gold Worsdell forever Posted August 26, 2012 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted August 26, 2012 NER Diagram V1/3 brake van. This van is mostly built from the Slaters kit but it has been modified to represent one of the vans fitted with side cotes (duckets), along with these it has had windows fitted at this end although these are slightly smaller than the usual ones in the other end. It is modelled with a door open from a photo in Ian Sadler's NER brake van book of one of these at Rosedale west. All but one of the handrails are fitted, the exception being one from the other end to the roof that can only be fitted when the roof is fitted after glazing. I've started fitting lamp brackets with the upper end ones both on. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 That's looking very nice! A brake van like this is on my to-do list now! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Worsdell forever Posted August 27, 2012 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted August 27, 2012 Lamp brackets, buffers and steps now fitted and a coat of grey primer, I've made a stove from a bit of sprue and brass tube. I've since given it a coat of red oxide (Railmatch) and discovered another Vallejo match, Game Colour, Dark Fleshtone makes a good LNER red oxide. The next coat will be this. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Worsdell forever Posted August 28, 2012 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted August 28, 2012 Getting close now, painted, lettered and weathered. The roof is not fixed, it needs glazing first, the stove will be fixed when the roof is put on as well. Painted and lettered (no wheels). And weathered. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
