woodenhead Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 If it is a working model, perhaps you guys could auction it off for charity, maybe even if it is a static one? 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torbay Express Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 On a serious note - I wonder actually how many other manufacturers have modellers talented enough to do a repaint like that? For saying it's only a bit of fun, it's actually a superb repaint! Everything is flawless....... outstanding! Just started trying to use an airbrush! Any tips from such a perfectionist and master very welcome...... 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that we should take this to 'the next level' -yes we need a Fintona Horse tram, which would run from the (Fintona) station to the goods shed to avoid the stress of the passing expresses to Cork 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philou Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 @97406 In the light of what has been said in the Site Information thread, it seems you will need to alter your link in the footer as the /community/ bit will point to a non-existant page - or so I understand.

Wickham Green too Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 I can't believe that wonderful spoof has been done on an 'A' class with too many wheels to make a convincing 'Crompton' ....... but then if it had been done on a 'C' class Metro-Vic, perhaps too great an April Fool's Day hint might have been dropped !!?!

RMweb Premium ColinK Posted April 3, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 3, 2022 I almost bought a Metrovick to repaint in BR blue - if I find one at a reasonable price second hand I’ll certainly have a go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
