Lima class 33s outside!
Pity I didnt notice the chassis on 33207 didn't fit!
Literally, on a plank.......
Like everything else they look better futher away!!

One day there will be a long network rail train handled by 73's...................
Looks like I've got some other "get round too"s in the bottom of that box too!
these fitted really easily. all my Lima 33s seem to have buffer beam damage. Heljan sprues are fairly cheap and the beams ca be made to fit snugly under the Lima body.
LHS is front and Heljan parts. RHS is rear and jumpers are bits of wire with a blob of glue one end and a short bit of wire glued the other end at 90deg. Multiple working sockets are a small bit of sprue with a bit of tube glued on the end (little oversized)
Lima models all have buffers again!!

First post for my Blog, been working on some Lima 33's this month, here's the first one
No lamp brackets yet. Could use the Heljan ones but I should make some.
No weathering as such yet, thin wash of black round parts of the roof, the frame is sprayed mat black with an overspray of mat light brown.
I realised I missed the cutting off and re attaching of the Lima tanks. they are not fully see through but have more "depth"
