'Mardy Monster' Peckett and also a Peckett B3 are 3D printed bodyshells bought from Shapeways, adapted to fit Farish Class 04 chassis. Then various detail bits, painting & weathering I've done myself.

An update to this thread, the layout has come a long way since I posted on here last, I haven't posted much on this layout for a while as there seemed to be very little interest. Anyway, some more photos for those who are interested

Another update & some photos for you all. Scratchbuilt yard lamps now painted, fitted in place & working.

Another job to get done is some working yard lamps. I've decided to scratchbuild my own. I've made them out of brass tube & soldered some brass ladders to the tubing. Some brass wire bent to shape & soldered onto the posts on the tops. Wiring threaded through the tubing, LED's fitted & some scraps of plastic for the lamp heads, then some lamp lenses glued into place. I've made a couple of different types, some single lamps & some double ones. They are far from perfect but hopefully they will look the part once they are painted up & in place on the layout. Cheers, Stu
