RSS Fetcher Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Twice this month - celebrity visits to Paxton Road! Had a tip off that it might be worth heading down, so nipped out over lunch. However I expect 33108 wasn't happy to be there - dumped by 33202 earlier in the day she's failed and waiting collection. Arriving at Paxton Road I grabbed a few shots from the road bridge before walking down to the yard and looking for someone to ask permission to grab a few snaps. http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/uploads/1265912357/gallery_6671_14_64408.jpg http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/uploads/1265912357/gallery_6671_14_91697.jpg After I'd been given the nod (and a high vis) I grabbed a few shots from the yard before heading back to work. http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/uploads/1265912357/gallery_6671_14_165121.jpg http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/uploads/1265912357/gallery_6671_14_9919.jpg 33108 is a Heljan model with end detail, weathering and the bogie spring mod - otherwise out of the box. Getting her out reminded me of what a good model the Heljan 33/1 is - it captures the prototype perfectly - and I do have a huge soft spot for Cromptons! Don't worry, as a model she's not failed as a model! View the full article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
