  15. is gonna fit 2 more yard lamps

  16. is thinking roll on sunday RHTT starts bring on them class 20s n 33s :)

  17. has got carried away with fitting cab lights thats 3 50s n a 56 n 2^20s n 60 all done but it looks good :)

  18. Tower models have a green painted body shell on their website, its their limited edition version i was not gonna get one but now im tempted but i want a 2nd class 20 first plus its still on for a september release
  19. Thank you for that Brian, i was bit unsure how they removed, i only had a quick look at the model this morning before i had to dash to catch a train, weekend project to do some of the modifications you have posted earlier in this thread. Most helpful like the class 37 one you did, that helped a lot and thanks again
  20. what is the best way to remove the 2 big windows and do they prize out towards you or do you remove them from inside ? Why i ask is because is ive got one sat at home waiting for me for when i get home later
  21. once you get bittern there is no turning back, My original plan was a circular line round the garden with just a class 37 but that all went out of the window, when tower models offered the 03 for £200 n 47 for £325 and ended up building a 7'6" by 18" mpd layout since the fleet is 2* class 37s n a class 08, 03 and 47 and today ordered a class 20 i originally modelled oo but now more into th o gauge side, very addictive worst than oo i think i think £425 is quiet cheap n good value since usually oo is now in the region of £75 to £115
  22. Sorry Andy, corrected it now and i was rushing and did not relise
  23. There are more pictures and information on the Heljan class 33 and 26 tower models website. Fresh pictures supplied by Heljan of the latest test mouldings and they are quiet.
  24. might be worth telling Heljan that, and would make sense to offer a dummy version with out motors cause i would be interested in a couple
  25. very nice and looks nice with the modifications to the standard model, its made me want one sooner than later but i cant afford one yet might have to sell my derby rtc limited edition stuff from modelzone to fund one now sooner
