O Gauge -
And here is the result notified in the last post...
Introducing - Jock the shunter, signalman Dave and naturally Andy the guard - more to come...
Including engine drivers, a fireman and a passenger..
It was quite enjoyable painting them - not exactly professional...
The was a minor disaster with the water crane, leaving a it little out of plumb...
Somehow the epoxy resin took longer to dry than it should
Jock's shunting pole lost its prong and was repaired using a bit of copper wire and far too much glue.
Somehow in the middle of all this painting a bottle of black paint wound up on the carpet - oops!
New painting protocols have been put in place which should prevent this from happening in the future.
The station shelter came ready made from Skytrex - Some Slater's GWR canopy edging has been added...
It will need some painting so that the browns match up.
The next project is well under way, which is to build a Slater's Diagram 208 Vent Van...
I am waiting for some transfers to arrive from Fox so it can be completed.
The whole saga will be the subject of the next post...
