Storm on the horizon

With 093 all finished I’ve turned my attention to my EE type 3, still in the early stages and lots to do but now this has arrived 👀 they’re multiplying Might have to weather this beast first Paul

Thanks very much Paul

Finally got around to some modelling, really pleased with todays efforts. I’ve done more work on the roof since the YouTube video

They are fantastic models, well worth every penny. Paul

Happier now I’ve done a bit more work on the roof. Paul

I video of the weathering on the bogies Paul

Finally got around to making a start on the weathering of 56093, pretty pleased with how much I’ve managed in just one day, still more to do and bits to tidy up. Paul

Cavalex cl56 and the Accurascale cl37 have both now been converted to EM with the drop in wheel sets, the 56 was a doddle but the 37 was a bit of a pain in the ass. Paul

Grabbed an hour today so I fitted the detailing pack to the 56 and printed off the remaining Templot for the stabling point. I’ve also printed off the exit road which leads on to the Bootle branch towards ELJ, so I might model this as well. Paul

Thanks mate

Back in the day my Lima 31 was my favourite loco. Paul

I love the mid 60’s because of the liveries the odd kettle and the early diesel’s abs electrics but my spotting days were the mid to late 80’s so I will get a few I’ll be honest, and going by the 56 I think I’ll be ordering a 60 to. I also have a soft spot for cl90’s 🙄 Paul

Finally had time to get 093 out of the box and ran in, it’s git to be the best sounding loco I’ve had and the detail is outstanding, well done everyone at Cavalex. Here’s a quick video I did Paul

Thanks everyone so much I really do appreciate the kind words 🫡 I’m slowly getting back into it and I’m going to concentrate on the stabling point I started for now as it’s only tiny and I’ll work on that until it’s finished. I’ve finally had my Accurascale 37 out the box she ran it in and this little beauty. Not my usual era but I had to have one and I have to say it’s one of the best detailed and sounding locos I’ve had. Thanks again Paul
