Cl59 59104 looks good in the Hanson livery is that a Lima chassis I see judging by the overly sized Coupling Bar Haha! Still a great loco, if only you could pick up the Hanson Wagons easier.

blueeighties Posted November 3, 2016 Author Share Posted November 3, 2016 Hi Lee, Still liking that class 26. What do you use to strip you loco bodies? Cheers Peter. Hi Peter. I use 100% pure IPA. Diluted with 10% water. Works a treat. I keep a bottle of Phoenix Superstrip for the odd job where the paint seems to be moulded on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
