Just a quick Blog entry with the painted and lettered wagons from the last entry. Smiths instanters have also been fitted. These wagons will be going into storage and receive weathering at a later date.

Catfish ballast hopper :

GWR Herring, although I am modelling LMR, quite a few of these were transferred north around 1960, hence my justification for its inclusion!

The two Grampus wagons, I seem to have done a rubbish job of painting the inside of these, fortunately this only reveals the Red Oxide primer. The etched plates from 247 developments are also rather nice.

These were all painted using another of the lifecolour black shades, I believe it was 'Worn Black'.
