    Thanks for that, I weathered the stock myself mainly with acrylic paints from the Tamiya range.

    The soon to be Backworth No. 6 when the transfers arrive. I remember this loco well from my youth and saw it many times at Backworth. It's the bog standard Dapol/Hornby with RT models injectors and extended cab steps. I would have liked to have changed the hand rails, but threading hand rail knobs is a thing of the past for me. No 6 was finished in Navy Blue livery, which can be faintly seen under the grime, although in truth it was always a well turned out machine.

    Do a mock up of the larger building at 3.5 and another at 3mm to the foot and see what they are like, you could probably get away with it if they are in isolation

    The walls are Slater's 7mm. I sprayed them with Halford's grey primer (rattle can), then painted with Vallejo Tan Yellow, finished off with a wash of Citadel Nulin Oil. I hope that is useful, It's quick and easy! Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated,
