47606odin Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 Been watching your progress on 33050 and must say you have made a cracking job of it so far, great stuff.. Thank you. It’s slower progress than I would like because of my awful shifts, meaning there are times I just flop on the sofa because I can’t think straight let alone paint stuff. Outstanding jobs for the 33, are fit eth jumpers, paint pipes and jumpers, shave and fit windows, wire up bicolour LEDs for the route indicators and fit drivers. Hopefully that should be it, then ican move on to something else on this thread but getting there 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
