That looks quite nicely weathered. Regarding transfers it's possible that Woodhead might have covered some of these parcels vehicles but you'll only find those secondhand these days, if at all. The boxed style wasn't common on NPCCS, more for freight stock.

Actually I miss the old smell of humbrol enamels; the current ones don't smell right.

Have you tried CCT (Cambridge Custom Transfers) They do a range of BR transfers.

They list their sheet BL54 as having Fruit D (Y11/Y14) numbers, but reading the introduction at the top it's likely they are for the earlier BR period.

Thanks, I've a couple of emails sent to Cambridge and Fox. Modelmasters took up the old Woodhead range, though I'm not having much luck finding the right ones. I'll mail them as well, though afaik they only supply 2mm ones though the NGS, and due to vaguish descriptions on the NGS shop catalogue (and my ignorance it must be said) I've bought yellow ones. Thnks for the info on the boxed style.

I'll see if they get back to me about sheet BL54, thanks for pointing it out to me/

The weathering? Thanks for the comments but there's none on at the mo. I found by thinning the acrylics quite considerably, they kind of pooled quite nicely into the recesses giving this look, plus it's undercoated with a garter blue. The roof is a couple of coats and a tiny bit of sanding to remove a couple of dried bubbles.
