Popular Post KNP Posted January 8 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 8 Main transfers added to the two tanks. If you look very closely you will see the faint pencil dots/lines I do to help line up the 7 individual transfers that make up one side of the tank. Once dry time for weathering then add tensioning rods… Thanks to Graham T for supplying me the missing set of UD transfers 34 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KNP Posted January 9 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 9 (edited) As a mess room and mobile workshop I acquired from flea bay this nice brake/third for the weed killing train. A few issues that needed fixing like drooping buffers ( must be the cold weather), broken steps, struts but otherwise a good buy Original condition Well it didn’t stay like that for long…. First pass today at weathering it (plus the two UD milk tank wagons as well) 30 minutes ago More distressing to go, need to throughly dry first. Can see what happens on the guards stick out when I scratched off some weathering with a cotton bud……. Mixture of dry brushing, thin washes and dabbing.

KNP Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 (edited) Also from Amazon site I got these two books secondhand. Bit late to the party as they where first published 20 odd years ago but they have a wealth of unusual pictures and information. Also a chapter on the weed killers….! Glad I tracked these down, should have got them years ago. Edited January 9 by KNP 17 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrWolf Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Snap! They're very handy books to have if you're modelling a GWR line and they're not expensive either. Highly recommended! From another (very) odd corner of the GWR 5 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWolf Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 PS. Love the UD tanks and the Ratio brake third. In my experience, broken steps and droopy buffers are mandatory on secondhand examples, though as you probably found, easy to fix. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although a certain magazine posted a series of pictures from Warley of the good, the bad and the time-wearied; holding and displaying said magazine in its full frontal glory - all that was missing was the powder pink bi/man kinis, a tray of sand to stand in, and a tropical island backscene. 2 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't go giving them ideas. The trauma induced by the sight probably wouldn't have worn off by the following year's show. Adrian 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
