A friend, and fellow member of the East of Scotland 4mm Group, has been designing a number of 4mm etched kits covering the various designs of NBR brake vans. Very kindly he agreed to produce some S-Scale etches for two of the designs and over the last few weeks I've managed to make a start on one of the brake vans.

The first brake van being worked on is a rebuilt version of the original Holmes design with narrow planking, two doors and two veranda's. So far the van is about 50% complete, there are no W irons included with the etches so these will have to be sourced from else where.
