For the full gory details of how we got this far (click here and read on - assuming of course that the old forum will let you). In the meantime, a few edited highlights (if that's the right word). This is my second austerity, the first was fairly common finescale stuff, a Dapol RTR body on a Perseverence chassis. I'm quite pleased with the end result which looks like this: Of course, having built one, you need another and it should be easier because the reference material is in hand: I have most of the bits and all the reference material one could wish for: Since the Perseverence chassis has gone the way of the Dodo however, and there isn't an alternative available from the trade, I could either, as some do, complain about it and not get anything done, or, do it myself. Having acquired a Dapol iteration of the old Kitmaster kit, an excellent Don Townsley drawing and having lots of scrap brass, the basis was easy enough. This is where we left off: Adam

This project formed the last entry on the mk 3 version of RMweb, so here it is again. What we have here are a collection of Road Trasport Images modules assembled to form a representation of a particular vehicle, in this case, an Austin K4 box van from the early 1950s owned and operated by British Railways. It turns up in innumerable pictures of Yeovil Town station from the '50s and '60s, and should make for an attractive model. In any case, it'll make a change from all those die-casts. They'll be some notes on the additional detailing still to be done as and when I have time to do it. Until then... Adam

By way of a test and a new beginning, an old picture while I work out this new format: Adam
