    Hi Will Vale,

     

    I have to confess that I don’t visit the blogs section that often, should really look at it a lot more! I was looking at your wagon weathering and have to say good work Sir, great weathering.

     

    Excellent work on 014, she is looking really good. As already mentioned said beast does indeed have the Corus silver door off of 006 and the latter has a black door!

     

    I am sure that you have already noticed 014 has an oval buffer at one end as well as an EWS maroon wiper plate!

     

    The bogie pipes are predominantly white but with some brown too on one bogie.

     

    If you look at this photo of 040 you can see the brown pipe work:

    If you have a spare moment here are some photos of my model 014:

    Hi Chris,

     

    Thanks for the info. on the bogies, I think I may have to get a couple of pairs of the S-kits ones to give a bit of variety.

     

    Not sure if they are blooms or billets?!!

     

    Last night I put together another three wagon bodies taking the total to 15. Only another 8 to go..........bought another kit the other day to make it up to a round 23!

    Hopefully over the weekend I can have all of the bodies together and start adding the bits and pieces.

    Hi Simon, yes I think this should keep me quiet for a few weeks! Will then have to sort out some slabs to go on them.

     

     

     

    James, not sure if it is commitment or madness! tongue.gif

     

     

     

    Melly, as yet they have not produced the bogie in one-piece but believe they have plans to.

     

     

     

    Thanks Danny, I too am looking forward to seeing them finished and trundling around the layout. Although there is a lot of work to be done first??
