A REBUILT West Country in more ways than one!

It's that time of the month for an update and my production line grows even longer. 34031 Torrington returned to the front of the queue and is now awaiting it's final coats of varnish (once the paint-shop warms up!!!) It's a true REBUILT West Country with all the parts from different sources etc.

Engine and tender coupled up, at this point I hadn't lined up the side of the tender facing the camera or applied the cabside numbers

 

Grange Class 6870 Bodicote Grange is next in the queue, currently awaiting more weathering.

6870 awaiting it's turn in the paint-shop

 

Another Q1class is up next this time it's 33035, again on a late totem and yes it will be very dirty!!! This one's already to roll into the paint-shop once the first two are done.

 

Following on from them will be another Grange Class and another Battle Of Bitain Class. The loco's and plates are here so they maybe started sooner rather than later. Their identities are 6800 Arlington Grange and 34057 Biggin Hill (a repeat I know, but this one will differ from the previous one I've done ;) )

 

That's all for now
