I went to the BGS Berks Area Group open day this morning and picked up a Greenmax kit for £3 of what is claimed on the side of

the box to be "Japanese Buses & cars for N gauge" dispite the picture showing council refuse/cleaning vehicles. The kit

contained two each of a dust cart and a strange, presumably sludge gulper, tank thing with hoses. Both have Mitubishi cabs with

the dust cart a more British/International looking body. The other vehicle is very much Japanese so they hae been consigned to

my 'to be sold as secondhand box'.

This afternoon I made them (all four vehicles) up - the first time for a while that I've put together an Airfix type plastic kit

and I did also by a Revell kit of a 1:144 SA 330 Puma. Below is a pic of the box with contents and another of the state I reached

before givng up for the night. The main outstanding things to do are add reg plates, matt varnish amd weather. Some local council

transfers would also be nice.
