Found this on eBay - a diecast “World of Stobart” item. Painted the cabin window frame reveals black to give the illusion of flush glazing and a spot of weathering and here we are:- Cheers Darius

Hi, I used plenty of masking tape applied to an old clear acetate report cover to create thin lines at the correct centres. This was sprayed with Halfords “Nissan Silver” and left to dry. Strips of the required width are cut off to glaze each coach. The blinds are masked and brush painted on the strips prior to glazing. The toilet window glazing is formed from similar sheets sprayed with white primer. Cheers Darius

The layout that a friend and I are building doesn’t feature any overhead catenary so Rule 1 will definitely be applied Cheers Darius

Thanks Keefer - I have decals for both the original and later liveries but agree that the original with its crests is the better one. Perhaps in a few years I might build the later liveried set. Cheers Darius

Thanks Jamie, we’re getting there slowly and steadily. I now need to glue some more Powerbase plates to the helix segments before we can extend it further. Cheers Darius

Hi Michael, I did but I found it difficult to use without damaging the paintwork under the mask. In the end I found it easier to use the flat needle file. Cheers Darius

Thanks Peter, I am starting to get the hang of applying the etched sides. It’s also nice to give some 1970s vintage model coaches a new lease of life Cheers Darius
