maico Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 (edited) Are the bodies painted blue and the roof light gray paint? The bogies left unpainted? It's hard to tell from photos. Edited February 7, 2020 by maico Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
34theletterbetweenB&D Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 The blue body colour and grey roof definitely painted. External bogie frame grey is I think self coloured plastic. (Based on the first release of the standard £99 version that I have.) I had to concentrate very hard to post that. The sound track in my head instantly switches to 'Isn't she lovely, Isn't she wonderful' the moment all this beauty is on view. If BR had the sense to build a fleet painted in that style, I might have been weaned off Doncaster pacifics as the ne plus ultra of UK express traction... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maico Posted February 7, 2020 Author Share Posted February 7, 2020 (edited) For a model that's been around for some time it still seems very good as long as it's not just blue plastic. I can't decide to wait for the Accurascale Deltic, and I have a feeling that is a good 6 months away, or get one of these...
