Well I've been away for 3 days, but the postman brought my HMRS decals on Saturday, there
waiting on the floor when we got home this afternoon.

 

Job done - I suppose not really finished as it needs a varnish seal on the decals and a light
weathering.

Modelu rear lamp on.

 

Not an easy kit and as you can read decals have been a real problem, yet I've thoroughly enjoyed
making this kit

 

Even if you bang your head against a wall sometimes it still remains fun.

 

The HMRS LNER Wagon sheet is as expected first class although it hasn't got some of the required
decals for certain periods of this vans use.

That looks great. Good thing we have the HMRS transfers. 

 

Incidentally that trackside fencing looks very convincing and straight. Must have been fiddly work.

Thanks Mikkel,

 

Ha, Ha, Yes my little demonstration piece. I used several different sizes and colours

of ballast to show how they look in-situ. For fencing the invisible sewing nylon thread

was run through drilled standard matchsticks and then looped around some 2.0 mm

jagged plasterboard nails, with heads suitably cut off after insertion.

I used to take this to exhibitions where I did demonstrations to show cheap and easily

available fencing IF you're prepared to do the work. Now I use it to line up couplings on

wagon kits I make where I want the buffing bar of a coupling to match exactly to my other

stock.
