Weathering Addiction

Weathering is just too additictive. A large chunk of last weekend was spent renumbering and weathering my Jinty. A project started to kill time whilst some glue was drying quickly got out of hand and took over proceedings. Other, arguably more important jobs, such as further tracklaying and wiring have been largely sidelined. As a result progress on the layout side of things has been slow but steady with just the track laid for most of the station area and the headshunt. The Jinty has been renumbered to a local Farnley Junction loco and heavily weathered. I tried out some streaking techniques with acrylic thinners and Tensocrom and I'm quite pleased with the results - just smokebox number plate, crew and couplings to add now.
