Rest day today and some more work done to the brewery.

The main structure now has floors and windows. Decided to add a few bits and pieces to the outside of the buildings.

As you can see from the second picture, I have bricked up a few windows to add a little more interest to it.

 

Another little job done today was to finish this.

Bashed from a Bachmann Junior loco. New chimney, safety valves, handrails and buffers. Originally I bought this to test decoders prior to cutting the plug off for fitting to non-socket fitted lococ's. But I decided it could have a better life than that and it will now be used on my next planned layout, which will feature a colliery. It will be weathered a bit and I would like to fit front and rear headlights to it.

I like the little loco where did you get the parts from to detail it?

 

The chimney was a mis-sold item on ebay, seller thought he was selling a 4F dome. Handrail knobs from the usual sources, safety valve from GKW Parts* and the buffers were, I think, Slater's. I will be getting rid of the steps and replacing with some etched ones.
