Some guy selling 30 of the same loco, not sure if it's madness or just strange? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335356510561

That made me wonder if wherever the grills were going to be flush brass so you could see some of the detail inside at some point and then decided no so reverted to keeping the grills the same material as the rest of the body

Wooden Kit painting : Creating Mortar in Brickwork
tom82 replied to Blobrick's topic in Modelling Questions, Help and Tips
I use fine filler from Wilkos with a touch of beige paint added in rather then a wash as I had issues with the wash soaking in to the wood and not leaving enough in the mortar joints. I also found it just as easier to clean up after the filler was in place with a damp sponge this helped by getting rid of the bleached whiting that covers the brick surface sometimes and keeps the colors toned down. -
Video is up on the PECO YT page with fitting instructions

So sad, Dave Shakespear was a massive inspiration to many modellers alike and certainly to me when I got back in to the hobby after a long break, I must of watched his Tetleys Mills dvd over 10 times hoping one day to aspire to such high standards. Condolences to his wife and Family at such a hard time. Tom

Al that looks amazing, 1 thing thou but is the white section above the column to high compared to the real photo?

Looking good, starting to come together with the first bit of grass on the embankments, well done.

Wow some top track work there and you seem to be speeding a long with the progress. As Sandside pointed out ild be inclined to go for a better type of point motor to match the excellent standard of points you have built, plus the added bonus of the realistic slow action of a Tortoise or similar and built in switch for the frog.

Another lurker here, If I see an update I always have a read to see the progression which is always to a high standard. Keep it coming!

As he loco was rebuilt in 1926 at Swindon works after being used on Cardigan & Whitland railway I would of thought so

Do you think any buyer is expecting a pack of Viagra with the purchase? Or maybe the current owner ran out of steam?

Tim The trackwork so far looks amazing, I love the feel of the design so far. Tom
