69005 this was on show at the DEMU show on my layout Burnroyd Works

The final result few weeks on the buffer beam with detail and probably weathering later but will enjoy running looking new for a while 

Decals done and one satin finish will do another pass later like this livery  it suits the class 37 

Well not much to do with the poor weather so the last few 37 bodies thought would crack on as I rather like the plain 37422 

Well I think it looks ok as I say think blue really suits the 60 

Not looking too bad really like this livery think it suits the class and next onto couple satin over sprays then onto Burnroyd Works for some pics and hope to get this running on our new layout Bardun when we can get back to the club rooms 

Now ready for gloss then the decals should be done this weekend I kind of like this livery and the decals will bring some life to it 

Well while waiting to see what livery 69001 thought I would crack on to do GBRF 60026 in the fetching blue livery 

Yeah rob, although I heard they may be doing 69001 in Progress rail livery whatever that is but no doubt that maybe blue lol

Looking good that Andy mine is nearly at that stage just need some more filler on a few parts after the first primer covering

also can’t wait to see what livery it’s given 

Well I will try to cost this up but I reckon it’s probably more down the challenge of the build rather than cost as they are not easy to come by and the last pair went for over £65 on eBay but I reckon it would cost at least £35 for the pair to make if you have most of the parts if you have to buy buffer ps and  brake wheels and bogies separate the it adds up then there’s the decals .?

I'm sure someone was meant to weather that ?? Can't think who

Thanks. Glad you appreciate it.

Still a lot of work to do before it's ready for Warley.

Sorry wrong tag button hit great work

Wow. I have just read through the whole blog

What a fantastic display of modelling first class it simply is fantastic enjoyed seeing the transformation and Weill keep tabs on this in the future

Well done truly wonderful

Well on way back from St. Helens today and stopped off at the services on the m62 and look wa

Hat was parked at the petrol station

Sir Keith Park

Well it's been a while but decided to spray a loco I wanted to do for a long time and will be running at Wigan in October DRS 57307

So pics from start to finish

So stripping back thunderbird livery then priming first coats

,glossed and decals applied and sat on my new project Burnroyd Works

well that's it for a while on spraying ,got the 60's done in COLAS livery, and now to getting some new lighting towers fitted on TROUTONS (Thanks KEITH Pylon man)

and also on my own layout "Burnroyd Works" ,which I will start a blog soon.

another view

well got the decals on just need couple coats of satin varnish and then finished - nearly got as many Colas 60's as Colas themselves now

there will be more 60's on show at Sheffield and not to keen on the new hat logo's but have to keep up with the times

just ready fro gloss varnish and then onto the decals once these are done will be then concentrating on my new private layout project" Burnroyd Works"
