Wye Valley Dismantling a Railway mid 1960s

I’ve taken delivery of a number of Dapol Class 08s, one of which is in EWS colours.

unfortunately the scheme isn’t correct for the majority of the locos, black cab roof and yellow exhaust pot really stood out so I’ve decided to use my new found airbrush confidence by correcting it.

 

Here is the process of masking in preparation, painting and the finished product - once the loco is dry I’ll be applying some weathering and numbers etc.

Further work on the Class 08....Class 09! 
I decided I wasn’t happy with the Dapol slightly over scale EWS brandings, so I painted them out and applied the fantastic Railtec faded ones instead - oh and numbered the loco 09022 she’s off to a new home next week.

 

I really enjoyed this little project, so much so another 09 is undergoing work, along with a Transrail branded Class 08.
