  1. My first post was a scale length model but the Turbo was not. Made the Jubilee "Windward Isles" at the same time as these were the locomotives involved in the Harrow collision. Playing devils advocate, what about a 4-2-2 "Princess"?! With long stroke con rods, it would be very Steampunk!
  2. Precisely. Colour fades over time. So if the shade is bright, ex. works. If dulled, service sheen. If black, needs a clean! Pick a time in the life of the loco and your colour will match.
  3. When you need a model for your friends new single cover, get the DC to dress up.....
  4. I recently had a "screamer". The bush was rotating in the frame. Bit of superglue put paid to that! Smooth runner now.
  5. Rover Damask red auto spray paint is as near as dammit!
  6. Got this W.D. look-a-like, made from a damaged, Tri-ang, "Davy Crockett"...
  7. Blackboard paint! Chalk it white for day, wipe off and draw the stars for night... I'll get my cloak.. SLAM!
  8. Use guitar plectrums. Easy to use and you won't damage anything if you slip.... 'cause you will...
  9. You are correct but, type Triang class 81 motor bogie and there is a premium price attached. Get a damaged, old, Transcontinental diesel for a song.
  10. Are both triangular plates, with locating holes, in place on the motor ends? These keep the bushings in place when under load. My one did as above. I made the missing plate, attached it to the end, problem solved. Then found the missing plate under my chair. B@s♧@rd!
