    Chassis and wheels in weathered black, body in satin black, but noticed a few runs on the cab sides, so a spot of light sanding wet and dry to remove and respray. not sure what colour to paint the cab interior. Ian G

    Yes it will be the departmental one, but looking through many photos a hanful of locos had the extra step. Ian G

    Not much more added spent the other night with my little airbrush type shot blaster happy with the results, boiler top fittings just placed and not fixed yet, still need to find a single handrail knob to finish off the front. Ian G

    The G6 is a Connoisseur kit, but does not come with a cab interior, many items are from the Laurie Griffin range with additional brass sheet for extra additions, my 1st real bit of scratch building has gone well so far, the drawing was sent to me by another RMweb member. Ian G

    Further progression over the weeks with many items attached, cab interior finished with lots of clean up needed. Ian G

    Back head bits and bobs added and temp fit in the cab. Ian G

    Further progress, tanks filled with lead shot and araldite, lids on sand boxes and tanks in cab, hand rail holes in side of cab filled, a spot more cleaning up then to add the cab fittings, I have noticed on the photo's I have that there is a pipe coming through the cab to the whistle then going down both sides, dos anyone have a good picture of this?

    Moving on a few months with steady progress, the loco is at this stage. Ian G

    I have moved on a bit with the build, I have a running chassis, and now to scratch building the cab interior, but not sure to compromise with the width of the tanks inside the cab, If I make themwide to cover the wheels I will have to trim 2mm of either side of the back head. Ian G

    Low Mach and loco crew finished, I can not get a decent photo of the faces as these took me the longest to paint. Ian G

    I picked them up in the garden railway centre near me, but I think if u look on m & m models you will find mustard models they do some. Ian G

    Some solder still to be removed in unwanted areas, just trying to keep it as clean as possible. Ian G
  24. Ian G
    Wheels and con rods test fitted tonight, only a slight bind one side, will deal with that over the next few days to get a smooth rolling chassis, and keep test fitting the body to check for squareness. Ian G
