Well some more items are slowly getting finished..
A while ago I acquired a DJH Duchess .. named as "City of Liverpool" the name didn't match the loco/tender combination.. (Duchesses and City locos and tenders are a mine field)
Eventually I bought some Fox nameplates for "City of Leicester" a very camera shy loco.
This has been "shed cleaned" but I notice I have not finished - I need a bit of dirt on the top of the boiler cladding (where you can't reach it easily). It has a high level gear box and a Mashima in it and it can pull almost everything it has been asked to.
I reworked a Judith Edge Ruston I built a few years ago. I was never happy with the BR Black livery so stripped the paint off it, refitted some items which were bent or askew then painted it as a "NCB Barnbow East Colliery No 7" red. Thanks to Mike Edge it now has a nameplate - "Asenath" - my Mothers name.. bless her.
For its size it is quite heavy so it should be fine...
And again Mike did some nameplates so that I could remember an Early Riser..
Purley Oaks.. aka Mal Stewart.. on a BRCW type 2
