RMweb Gold Scottish Modeller Posted May 20, 2016 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted May 20, 2016 HI all, Following on from the NDM6 build.... OK - it isn't finished until I can get the decals sorted and applied, but it's going to sit above my workbench untuil I can. In the meantime.... What's next to do? Simples! A Backwoods Miniatures DHR Class B 0-4-0 tank engine. http://www.backwoodsminiatures.com/009kits.htm Then scroll down. Thanks More shortly - I've only just started reading the instructions.

RMweb Gold Scottish Modeller Posted June 15, 2016 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted June 15, 2016 Hi all, Progress has been slowed by the need to earn some money.... Whilst I do have a deadline to complete and hand the next couple of items over - it's a bit away and easily managable. So - other things have taken over the priority! In the meantime.... The decals are slowly getting there see that thread. Painting the Darjeeling stock is always a challenge as the 'Darjeeling Blue' varies from one bit of stock to another! However, a contact over in India has let me have the information for the official colours carried by NDM6 locos - both on the DHR and on the MHR. These are RAL5019 and RAL3011. I must be psychic as the colour I've used was Halfords Capri Blue which is RAL5019 - so I got that right then! The RAL3011 for the MHR also appears to be very close to the Red used for a couple of years on the DHR Coaches. Anyway - more on those threads as things progress!

RMweb Gold Scottish Modeller Posted August 23, 2021 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted August 23, 2021 Hi all, OK - I'm back on the DHR projects and will start updating things as I progress things. One of the things that has got me going has been the new DHR products available as 3d printed models. Not that this will stop me using etched and white metal items - just gives me more options. A big kink up the whatsit has been the availabilty of decals - OK in larger scales at present, but I've asked the questions about getting them in 4mm to ft for 009. I still have my original coach decal sheet and hope to get that printed in the near future. So, more once I get things going, but I hope progress will be a lot faster than in the past. Thanks Phil H ps - I still need more photos of DHR coaches though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Paul, Yes - these are the decals I was on about. I knew they were available in the larger scale, but asked about some in 009 and the release of them in 009 is the result. I should have some later this week and will come back about using them - I have stock waiting, ready for decals! Thanks Phil H Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
