time spent on this site has been rare of late, with time being spent on 1:1 projects and whatnot, ive completely neglected the railways

however! ive been struck with a case of 'man flu' and sent home from work for the next 2 weeks, so i broke out the toolbox and started chopping stuff up for a planned locomotive ive wanted to model for aaaaages!

im not going to say what it is, or is going to be just yet, but your welcome to guess

i have a more 'get stuck in...oh i should take photos' after im halfway through, my documenting skills lack somewhat, so i shall TRY and update on progress as it goes

these are the ( cut down ) parts i started with

class 58 centre, Bachmann 20 chassis

58 cut down, grilles removed from 20

sides sliced off the class 20 bogies

updates later, but for now its now back to the modelling board!
