Right amongst the other things I have been doing, I have got this Parkside wagon finished. It has been a while in the workshop but is now ready to be possibly weathered when I have done some experiments.

It was finished in Precision SR wagon brown and a flat varnish after the transfers where fixed. The brown for some reason here always looks washed out in the photos.

I will soon have to get the layout started as I almost have a small goods train, with the wagons almost finished on the bench.

I need to add some weight to it but am very short of old whitemetal and lead at the moment. Not easy to get here. I am keeping an eye out for a diving supplier for some shot or will have a chat next time the tyres need to be changed.
