Seems strange they would go to the effort of a white roof and yet leave the cab front black.

I know, but in reality that cab roof wouldn’t be white for long! Once I have done some weathering tests on my earlier j69 I will attempt it on this! It is way too clean right now!

Looks the biz! Will she be ready for Kempton Park? Do I need to fit a decoder?

I thought I would build a little backdrop board to make photographing my O gauge models a little more interesting, plus I felt like modelling something a little different also!

 

Still very much work in progress, and I have yet to decide what colour ballast to use, if anyone has an ideas I would be grateful? Currently i'm thinking grey, but with some washes to help tone it down a little!

Walls are 3d printed on the creality ender 5 plus, and the signal box is based on Crawley, and older model I 3d printed a while back and had kicking about. It still needs finishing, with an interior, glazing and some weathering, but I figured I would incorporate it into the little scene to add a bit of visual interest to the scene!

Great job on the signal box. I will have to see if I can revise my 4mm models of Rowfant and Grange road boxes to show a couple of windows in the open position.

Those look great Keith, I have to admit i am a sucker for open windows a lot of my coaches all have open top lights, i think it adds some visual interest and detail to the models personally!
