Waverley West Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Can I ask where you got the figures in post 1327 from? The driver's bag and tea can are brilliant and the figures have very natural poses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The leaning figure is a driver, from the same source, but perfect for the depot baskets! Looking very good Mudders. Will you be at Trainwest next weekend? Cheers, Dave. Cheers DLT, yes we are helping on Oakley Green. See you there! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
