As my forum name suggests 057 has always been a favourite of mine and it's great to now have it in model form. Hi Chris, looks great with the detailed chassis and the lights on- thanks for trusting me to do it for you, cheers Jerry 1 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrel Rail Posted March 25, 2021 Author Share Posted March 25, 2021 Chiltern Bubble car is now finished. This started out as the orangey brown Railtrack thing but is now in good old Blue and grey. and from the other end Next up is something I haven't worked on before, 3D printed bodyshells. I've given them a coat of primer and now filling in a few holes before flattening them all off and another coat of primer. The other fun today was sorting out these five, a motley selection requiring repairs and removal of the Hornby weathering before denumbering and renaming. The chassis are all sorted so next up is sound fit for all of them and then renumbering and weathering. 11 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrel Rail Posted March 28, 2021 Author Share Posted March 28, 2021 Some very different subjects today with the Midland 150 getting door surrounds... Then a bit of steam with an RSH getting a coat of red and last up decals onto the MPVs - I haven’t messed up the position of the Network Rail logo they’re in different positions on the real one! 12 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alf Hi Alf, I have the paint for doing that but reckon if Bachmann ever do some more it’s a good chance they will do that livery so so far have resisted that one!

Squirrel Rail Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 Weathering on the 50s today with the airbrush work underway, here’s 037 029 and 030 Everything else today has been primer so not the most exciting to post so I haven’t! 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Ncarter2 Posted April 1, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 1, 2021 Those 50’s are looking good Jerry. Once the 90’s and 66 are done I may need to send some of mine over to look more realist! They are far to pristine! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Squirrel Rail Posted April 2, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 2, 2021 Lots of colour today mixing a green to match the door surrounds on the centro 150.... mans finally getting to this... more green mixing for 66522, this is a nightmare to match but finally happy with this and the weathering will bring it all together. The Euro blue and Rail grey were slightly less challenging! change of colour to Virgin Red, followed by GBRF orange on the N gauge 60 before rounding off the day with a pair of 56s in Fertis grey, the other one is still drying so hasn’t disappeared.... 20 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Jerry I don't have any pics unfortunately but it was on a layout called Foxhampton which was at Stafford show last year: https://www.staffordrailwaycircle.org.uk/layouts/members-layouts-2/foxhampton/ I'd quite fancy one in debranded LM, as per when they transferred to Northern so when the pennies allow I think I know where I'll be coming for one!
