4th January 2010

Going back to the Virgin rake, I have finally finished the renumbering of the powercars. Just need the City of Aberdeen nameplates now, and to convert the roof grills to the other type.

Planning to get some wheels for them (hopefully at the Warick show on the 16th), then the final job will be adding the kaydees to the rake.

Starting to think about replacing my converted TRSB with the new Hornby one (depending on how good the model turns out to be.) While the Hornby model would need to be resprayed, my converted model will also need a new coat of paint....

Not in a huge rush to get the mk3s finished at the moment (given that even if the layout was finished, it wont take the HSTs yet), so not in a huge rush to finish off the mk3s, but it will be nice to be able to run the powercars....
