Great Central Railway Class 5A - LNER J63

[Rob Pulham]

I received the chimney from Mike last week but the good weather meant that outdoor jobs took precedence. However, some modelling time yesterday afternoon and evening, saw the final touches to added the loco. I am now going to sit and look at it for a few days before arranging painting with Warren. Just in case I spot something that I haven’t noticed…

Warren Haywood has finished painting the Great Central Railway Class 5A Dock tank. He sent me a couple of photos of what it looks like before it goes off to it's new owner.

 

It does look rather smart I have to say.

Very nice! Mine has hardly been touched for ages as I have been distracted by other things. No 538 has a little brother as that is the number of the one built by Peter Denny for Buckingham.

I wonder if Peter's build was the inspiration for choosing the number for big brother. 

 

Hopefully seeing this one finished might give you a a bit encouragement to pick your build up again.
