    It's been a while due to him being unwell, at least six months but he's @toboldlygogetting better and hasn't lost his weathering touch. Here we see a couple of the latest Rapido wagons . The mink has had destinations added using transfers, inspired by the work of Nick @Brinkly and Gerry @Bulwell Hall. The four plank needs a load, any suggestions ?

    Thanks for those Phil.  I'd seen your thread before actually, no doubt when I was trying to sort out my Dean Goods before.  Sorting out chuff rates is something else that I need to get my head around at some point.

     

    I like your idea of using mesh; where did you source it, and how did you fix the coal?  CA glue?

     

    I've just gone for the blue-tack route on mine, along with some plasticard at the front of the tender, and after a test the loco is still more than LOUD enough 🙂

    Next stage will be to add the coal and some screw link couplings, followed by paint and then a crew.

     

    Graham can I ask which Dean goods locomotive this is. BTW I like the improvements you have made.
