A quick Ebay project that happened by accident, (And is was really cheap)

Hi all,

Last week i was just browsing through you know where as you do. And I saw this for £10.00 or make an offer. So I thought what the hell and put an offer in for £7.00. Much to my surprise it was accepted. Admittedly the pictures did not show that some one had attempted to paint this crane on one side with gloss red and made a bit of a mess of it. But this did not matter as I was going to repaint it anyway. So after a fairly quick repaint and a quit a heavy weathering this is what I have. And I quite pleased with it. I know it is a far too modern crane to be LNER and that it is really a European design. But I like it. It goes well with my 3 HD Cowen's cranes I restored (picture included here) and my 75 ton Hornby one.  But for £7.00 I think it is an absolute bargain.
