Finally picked up a set of LMS and LNER wagon transfers (again HMRS) and a tin of LMS bauxite paint, so finally the remaining wagons could be finished off.

(finished ish anyway, they will all still need buffers and 3 link couplings

First up an LMS ventilated D1832 ventilated van, and a D1986 LMS 1 plank, both have been painted in the post war brauxite livery and will be lettered up this evening. The 1 plank still needs more work finishing off the paint work inside.

Next a parkside Diagram 94 LNER van (wooden ends) carrying the pre war livery, a parkside LNER open carrying the post 38 livery and a Cambrian ex Midland D1664 in the pre 38 livery.

Finally a LMS D1666 5 plank (with wooden chassis) in the early livery, a Bachmann LNER van in post 38 livery, a LMS D1663 steel ended van still carrying the old LMS livery and a parkside Lowfit in LNER livery (although it is missing the "do not load with containers" branding as I have yet to source a transfer.

So with that lot nearly finished, the next job will be building the next batch. (prior to which I really ought to get some more Bill Bedford wirons...)

So far I have another parkside lowfit, along with a parkside LMS open. There are also a couple of Coopercraft kits for a pair of Minks and a loco coal open and a Ratio Mink. Along with some Airfix Conflat bodys and a Cambrain LMS open which need some new solbars, and a handful of Airfix cattle wagon kits awaiting conversion to GW prototypes...

Plenty to keep me busy at any rate, not helped by the Yate model shop selling Parkside, Cambrain, Ratio and Coopercraft kits (meaning I normally leave with at least one). While it always takes me a while to get enough listed to make the postage worth while on an Eilieens order...
