With regard to the class 07 weathering, I thought it would be useful to have  shots of the finished loco available from more angles. Here they are!

Want to know how to do it? See the magazine (but then you buy a copy anyway don't you, since you're reading this on RMWeb? The latter is free of charge, by not free of cost).

 

Happy modelling, Michael

Howard, I subscribe through exact editions.

The link to the BRM tv doesn't work and I don't see the traction magazine.

How do I access these?

 

Hi Ian,

Because Exact is a magazine 'rental' scheme you'll only see BRM in this issue. Traction is for pocketmags subscribers (which I'll clarify above). I'm told the link to BRM TV this issue is just below the click here in the issue, however, Andy has posted a link for all RMweb Gold subscribers in the RMweb Gold forum.

Enjoy the episode!

Great article covering constructing the Severn Model pylon kit back in March  . I’ve scratch built quite a few 1:76 scale pylon models using the original CEGB/National Grid blueprints/drawings for accuracy, very time consuming but worth it , all are British designs .4FE4702E-61E3-4C91-BDF0-B9680134899C.jpeg.97c550a686b295bf93bfa88578cb0baa.jpegCF703698-665B-4482-800F-8056FAEFFA0F.jpeg.b468308d221388b63e6959f358757d8c.jpeg
