A quick update on this project.

 

This loco has been sitting forgotten whilst I've been working on the Rustons, but I dug it out yesterday to do a bit more work on it whilst one of the Rustons was being run in on the rolling road. All I did was to paint the exhaust, paint and fit the buffers and pick out the window frames in Tamiya flat aluminium;

The roof beacon isn't glued on yet, I haven't decided whether to fix it in place before or after weathering.

That roof beacon so needs to flash Paul!

 

Looks really good, I hope its going to be nice and dirty?

Thanks for the comments and 'likes'

 

43 - its one of A1s earlier kits.

 

Julia - the roof beacon has a loose wire, and the site's sparky is on a tea break... I know that you'd do clever things with LEDs and DCC but I'm happy to leave it as is.

It will be weathered one day, when I've plucked up sufficient courage. If I was painting it now I'd probably have a go at pre-shading, possibly using a mid brown rather than the usual black under the yellow. But for now I'll just enjoy the ex-works finish.
