The final update on 56049 for now (at least until I make a start on weathering it)

After receiving a coat of Testers Dullcote, the model was fitted with the missing handrails (the longer side of the cab door handrails all snapped when the model was stripped down).  With that done the remaining orange cantrail stripe around the cab was painted on. 

It has been converted to P4 however the gears are a little loose on the new axles and it doesnt run too well, I need to source a set of Heljan gears which should solve the problem.  I am thinking about test fitting an axle from a Heljan 47 Ultrascale pack with the aim of ordering a modified set from Ultrascale (that way the wheels will be the right size.)

With that done it was time to reassemble the glazing, followed by the lighting.  The latter was fine at one end (but was missing from the other) so some thought will need to be put into working lights on the other end.  It is missing the Hornby lenses at that end so will need to find a way of replacing those.
