Spitfire part 2


The Fatadder

681 views

The missing toolboxes were added from a Southern Pride tender, with evergreen strip forming the plate under it.
(As an aside the tender chassis currently under the white metal body will probably be reused with the unpainted 3500gl shell that I have in the spades box.

 

All that remains to be added now is a single missing step, I see PDK list an etch of GW tender steps, so given I need to order a bell for 6000 and a chimney for the 42xx I will add this at the same time.

 

Now it's just a waiting game until I either pick up a Star or the nameplates arrive...

 

In the mean time (ignoring the missing tender logo) it's a much more suitable Wellington for 1947 than Hornby supplied...

Spitfire is on my list too Rich.I'll be using the Hornby Dryslwyn for mine.

That was my original plan, at least this way I won't have to remove the lining....

 

Though if I had know that Hornby are going to correct their GWR green in 2017 (or at

Least are implying it) I would have waited...
