When you do start it give yourself plenty of time. Mine took over 100 hours but I am a slow builder.

Sorry for hijacking your thread but here's another view of my Peter K footbridge. If you are interested I have more photos on the scalefour forum of the construction of this kit and in a future scalefour news will be an artical of how I constucted this kit if this will be of any use to you

Is this the etched footbridge you're going to build?

Sorry you couldn't find a copy. I suggest you keep looking. It is an old issue dating back to 1986 (starting to show my age now).

Sorry I'm a bit late on the autocoach project but may I suggest sourcing a copy of MRJ No9 as there is an excellent artical on upgrading the airfix autocoach. It is 11 pages long and covers 2 diagrams that can be built with this model (A30 and A28). Lots of photos and diagrams and very well written articles.

There is a company that does thin aluminium corrugated I used on my Peter K footbridge if you are interested.

You're right you don't see much once the loco's attached

The powders are very easy to use and the thing I like most about them is they seem to stay put even if you handle them. Also if you want to remove them warm soapy water does the trick. As about storage all my stock are in stock boxes. I like your modeling on the cattle wagons. Have you read the MRJ articals on these wagons?

Sorry for the upside down photo don't know what happened there

You are correct it is an N6 built from a David Geen kit but with lots of mods. If you are interested the weathering was carried out with powders from Forge World. I have PO wagons weathered with these. I have included pictures of these if they are of help. Before and after picture.

I don't know if this helps but all 3 coal wagons are black but once weathered can't really tell the base colour.

Thanks for the info on the rivets. Is it a martin finney aberdare kit?

Pete

Hello there really enjoying this thread. Could you please tell me what Archer sheet of rivets you used on the TV brake van as I agree with you on the bracing will deform as I have one to build and I like your solution.

Nice to see a photo of No 5 on slough estates. Still remember the locos running in the late 60s and early 70s
