As for the OHLE it's not that hard once you've got a few basics worked out, it's all made from Evergreen plastic I beams and .5mm brass wire with insulators from Veismann.

P.C.M Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Hi Simon, Superb video, your loco fleet and stock has certainly grown. It's always nice to see a few Peds floating around as Bescot did have a few and the class 50 on clay was a nice touch too. My only comment re the stock is 47003 could do with a bit of matt varnish over the decals as the gloss does show up a bit. The new Hornby class 87 looks very good I am sure a few more might turn up. Cheers Peter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
