A few minor corrections made to D6703 tonight (prior to bufferbeam detailing); painting the buffers silver and adding a red stripe to the axleboxes, as per the prototype:

 

 

Grease marks will be added once the silver paint has dried but already it's made a difference to the "face" of the model, for the better I feel. Otherwise it's a gorgeous model and I can't fault it! Having worked for a few years on 03 in pres, its nice to have a model of the old girl!

Dont forget the  horn housings, needs to be green as well.

D1058 was one of the Westerns I saw at Swindon in November 1978.

D1058 Western Nobleman in Swindon scrap yard, with diesel brake tender B96409? on the next road, 12/11/78

 

cheers

If i remember rightly,  it didnt look much better than that, when it was working.

The WSR did D1010 for a while, in a weathered look.

A scan from the G&W calender for Sept 2023

My own pic of 31135 at OOC in Dec 84

+ the for 4 eyed Non skinhead, skinhead at Tinsley in May 85

I wonder why they moved the nameplate, from 

it normal position 

Looks like it has a Tinsley shed code.

And 5804 was a Tinsley loco at that time.

Just wondering, would it be better to leave out the headcode panel (glass)

so we can mix & match without going inside the body.

Here's some I took the other week. Side on view with camera staying on the tripod and locos carefully lined up to marks on the track to ensure no differences in perspective. Also a top-down view.

 

Balance weights on the driving wheels look a lot better on the A/S one

or did the differ on the prototype.

+ the area above the front pony wheel, looks better on the A/S one

Do we know the numbers of the ones, going on holiday.

And another one of 5580

at Elsecar, in better times

Thanks for that pic of No11.

I knew i had seen a pic of a TOPS numbered 50

with black MU boxes.
