dibateg Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 Nth Degree, I think that you are right, its a re-worked Oak ville by Allen Hammett. Regards Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverstreak Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) The V3 ? lurking off to left looks interesting !!!! D2594 was based at 52D Tweedmouth for a year or two shunting the yard there. I never used to take much notice of it especially if a Pacific or two were on shed Edited April 14, 2015 by Silverstreak Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibateg Posted April 14, 2015 Author Share Posted April 14, 2015 There are two v3s on the shed, a DJH and its poor relation from Ace..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim.snowdon Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 It's positively clean - you can still read both the number and the BR lion! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard i Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 It's positively clean - you can still read both the number and the BR lion! Tony if you are struggling to get it dirty enough then i have an austerity you can borrow to see how to really weather. Just call out "flying turd" three times, kick you heals and it shall appear. I have liked the builds. Richard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibateg Posted April 16, 2015 Author Share Posted April 16, 2015 Merseyman - thanks - yes I do weathering for money! Jim - there is more grime to go on yet, but I'm always quite constrained on commissions, its easy to add more later if required... Richard - nice to hear from you - yes I remember that Austerity with a shudder... Regards Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dibateg Posted April 16, 2015 Author Share Posted April 16, 2015 Thanks Paul - yes the Wellingborough ones seemed to be particularly unkempt, almost dirtier than Annesleys'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffP Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 The ones we saw at 36C were always filthy......steelworks grime added on top of the usual as above. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scale7JB Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I'm guessing that Wellingborough shed might not have been that good with their water treatment... Either that or the fireman were a little forgetful in switching the injector off... JB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibateg Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 Now 92204 is ready for delivery, a couple of grab shots this morning. The lighting was not the best, too much contrast as the sun came round. 92031 is close behind, but the sun is taking me outside for other jobs. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horsetan Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 How about this? Sorry it's only in B&W 5880117424_bd585cc711_o A.jpg Strangely enough, that was the one cut up at Barry in 1980, along with 4156 and a couple of diesels......

dibateg Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) 92204 has been delivered to it's owner, but not before making a celebrity appearance with some 3D printed figures by Modelu ( www.modelu3d.co.uk ).

jim.snowdon Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 All that's missing are the oily streaks on the wheels where the oil from the main and crankpin bearings has crept out and down the spokes, plus the emulsified oil stains on the leading drivers from the inevitable leakage round the piston rod glands. Otherwise, very nice, and pretty much how a working steam loco ended up looking - ultimately its job was to move loads, not look pretty. Now, what's next to look forward to?

dibateg Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 Thanks guys - the figures were almost straight from the printer.. I was restrained on the weathering as it was for a client - but thanks for the feedback. Next - on the same theme.... a Crostie 9F... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
