Here we have another Scottish tank engine in O Gauge - This time a N15 0-6-2T. I purchased it many years ago knowing it needed a bit of TLC. I have partially repainted, detailed and weathered it.

Here is an O Gauge Class J83 I purchased over five years ago. It had some paint problems so it went on the back burner. I have now partially resprayed it and put on new transfers. To hide the reconditioning work I have given it a medium weathering.

Here are some Dapol O Gauge tanks that I recently weathered. This is a rake of four, just right for a small rake or part of a mixed goods train.

This is a Manning Wardle K Class weathered for my friend Colin French's new Micro Layout 'Dunwich Tramway'. Very impressed with this O Gauge Minerva Model. It is still to be coaled!

Here we have a D40 4-4-0 as running before withdrawal in 1955. I purchased it for a Layout Project about 5 years ago along with four other Scottish Locos. Sadly even after all this time the layout is still only baseboards, track and electrics. I hope to finish it off this Spring/Summer, weather permitting as I have to make layouts outside. This Loco was purchased at a good price as it did have some issues but I am pleased to say that these have all been sorted now. It is O Gauge.

Class 40 in O Gauge - renumbered and weathered 40004. Cant afford Locos at present so renumbering some of my Pre-tops into Tops.

37265 move from Pre-tops to Tops in O Gauge. Stratford Engine in the mid 70's and I used to see it regularly.

Another day, another Loco, 25046 in Tops, renumbered to Tops after lots of research finding an example with nose doors in 1976 'ish. O Gauge.

Class 03 number 03 017 was a March Engine in the mid 1970's - it also spent time at King Lynn. This is an O Gauge Loco.

A Class 31 after renumbering from Pre-tops to Tops - based on 1976 'ish era - O Gauge. I did a lot of research to find a loco that was still in more or less original condition - I found a photo of 31 169 in 1978 - it must have been one of the last to have its boiler footsteps sealed and the nose doors replaced.

Another one of my O Gauge Loco re-numberings from Pre-tops to Tops in about 1976 -79. I have given the loco a well worn, faded and grimy look. 08250 was a local engine to me at Norwich (NR).,

Yet another Loco from my Holiday painting efforts. This time a Gresley K3 2-6-0 in BR mixed traffic Livery - based at March 31B in the late 50's. Its in O Gauge again. The full story of this and other recent re-paints are on my Blog (Website) - www.kelvinsrailways.com

Another Loco from my Holiday efforts - This time a V2 based at March in the late 50's, 60938. This is a heavily modified Bachmann Brass model from about 10 years ago - it was in unnumbered and unlined LNER light Green - so a full repaint, numbering and lining was required.
