Hi All,

It has been slow going with the modelling of late, however I have managed to make quite a bit of good progress (for me) over the last week or so. This has been helped by being allowed a modest spending spree by those in pinnies who hold the purse strings.

Delivered recently was a pair of Bachmann class 150's in order to make the GMPTE triple a reality, and also a class 153, which will be modified with the Bachmann power-train as per Scheihallion.

The march of progress has also reached the class 321/9 project. This model is now ready to hit the paint shops along with the class 210. Now I'm quite pleased with the 210. It is now a viable model of 210002 - and if I were a better photographer you would be able to see what I mean. For now you'll have to make do with the shots below.

Of course there is a lot still to do paint wise - not least that jolly fiddley white line between the blue and grey of BR livery, however I hope to be able to share more progress soon. Perhaps I'll put up some shots of the class 321 as well. You can also follow my workbench thread if you'd like to see what I'm up to.

Thanks for looking in,

Cheers,

Chris.
