    Thank you market and spitfire ^ I do believe it is a general purpose wagon, so who knows what it carried. Got the 6 wheeler finished today and took photos of both outside. Thanks Nelson

    Hello everyone, This is the latest wagon to emerge from the wagon works, hopefully it'll be passed onto the paint department later today and visit the weathering department tomorrow. Thanks Nelson

    The era I model is 50/60 years before I was born..... And I have no intention on modelling what I grew up with (plastic CAFs)

    Hello everyone, I know I said it would be next week until I get the chance to model, but no homework = free modelling time so I got some free hours and finished this one off, some may say the weathering is too much but I like it and it's in it's last year of service with the UTA anyway. Thanks Nelson

      Not that unusual. Statistically we are more likely to have a White Easter than a White Christmas.

    Thank you market ^ Hello everyone, I got some handrails for the engine at model rail Scotland (which was a fantastic show btw) and put them on yesterday, apart from that the engine still looks the same, I'm now just waiting for some good wether then I can spray a primer onto her. Yesterday I also started this NCC coal wagon she is scratch built with platicard and some whitemetal buffers and axeboxes. I got a thin sheet of brass at my local craft store surprisingly enough and made the brake lever out of it, it turned out rather well so I'll be using the same method with my other wagons. School will delay this until next weekend, so until then. Nelson.

    Lovely carriages, nice work.

    That tender looks amazing, honestly it looks superb, can't wait to see how the engine turns out.

    It's neither black, white, blue or gold, it's nothing!

      It's a dress. The contents interests me more than what bloody colour it is.

      I had it on mute so Idk what they did for sound, but I could do better than that video, and I dont even have a J15 or my camera...the stop motion was horrendous.

    There was plenty available today at Model Rail Scotland and if you look around you can get one for £97...... It really is a beautiful engine, the LNER livery is very neat indeed.

    Just for anyone who's interested this is how my C class (GNRI PG Class) is looking so far. Still a fair amount to do Nelson
  19. Nelson Jackson
    Thank you JCL for your comment ^ Got a little more done on the engine, not a lot tho. This will will have to be put on pause for a short time until Saturday when I get some detailing bits and bobs. Nelson
  20. Nelson Jackson
    Nice tidy job there looks lovely
  21. Nelson Jackson
    Thank you Market I will try my best and thank you Corbs, no question is a stupid one, I actually use a Stanley knife, I used craft knives before but I found that the more heavy duty knife the less work it takes

    Hello Everyone, The weather still isn't being too kind so I've just been sitting inside converting this GBL C class static model into a motorised GNRI PG class engine, the work included cutting through the footplate hollowing out the boiler and and cutting away the cab and cylinder covers. I've rearranged the splashers and added more sandboxes. The Tender has also been shortened and interior added. The engine Is still far from being finished but it's starting to take shape. Thanks Nelson

    Hello Jamie, If you read back a couple of pages, I've used a Bachmann Jinty chassis and it fits rather well with a fair amount of work, and another person (who's name I've forgotten whoops) used an airfix tender driven chassis and it looks very good.
