Looking good Jeremy.Did you lower it or raise the bogies? I can't recall...In terms of the decals, I had that problem last year. I removed them and redid them with some Klear and they seem to sit a lot happier now.Give it a try...and then get weathering!

Hi Pete,

I raised the bogies on this one. Did you apply the Klear on first on your 37's and then put the decal on whilst the Klear was still wet?

Best regards,

Jeremy

Looking good.I'm glad I'm not the only one to have problems with tranfer carried film. You might be able to get away with just overcoating them with Klear.Transfers sit best on a gloss finish - the carrier film shows up less. If you've got spares, I'd be tempted to remove the new numbers. Apply some Klear to the area and leave to dry. Reapply the numbers and leave to dry (over night). You can then coat over with matt/satin varnish to seal them before weathering.Where did you get the buffers from? I'm converting the coal sector class 37 to Petroleum sector 37 273 which had oval buffers rather than the round ones the model has.Happy modelling.Steven B.

Hi Steven,

I've just over coated the transfers with some Klear and I think i've got away with it!! The carrier film is much less visible now.

In terms of the brass buffers, I got them from N-Brass. They do make a difference to the appearance of the buffer beam area. Looking forward to seeing your petroleum sector 37!

Best regards,

Jeremy
