Day 92: AEC shunter back on the bench

To be honest, I've neglected this project a bit too much. But it's back on the bench now, with handrails, a driver and a couple of other bits added last night. The chassis (version 4? version 5?) is now working nicely too, so looking like we're on the home straight at last.

 

That paint job is really rather gaudy isn't it? I fancied a change from the nice refined dark blue I normally use, and I think it'll look a lot less toylike once it's been weathered.

I'd never heard of this unit until reading your blog - what a unique design!

 

Interesting to think what might have happened if it had become a commercial reality - maybe BR might have had fleets of these instead of other small Diesels like the 01s...
