Absolutely fantastic Graham - when are you taking orders for them? ;-)

Looks great!
Fantastic detail, fantastic prototype. (I am a fan of the MET too) I look forwards to seeing more. I just wish I had a larger modelling space makes my 00 Gauge stock seem insignificant compared to this!

Thanks for the comments - No real plans for further models at the moment I was checking out a KBscale diesel kit which might potentially be on a list of things to purchase but no solid plans. Was just for a bit of fun really.
Brookford looks fantastic Paul! Ironically after buying the kit and whilst it was en-route everything I saw that was new pop up was O14 scale.

Thanks Don
It's suddenly become apparent to me why it rides high (plus a message from Boris), the notch in the bottom of the sites was for the solebar - not the flooring which also explains why the floor was a loose fit before I added extra glue... Still if anyone asks it'd just returned with a new set of springs which need 'running in' on my P-Way.
Still you learn by making mistakes.

They look fantastic.
I always have an odd fascination with these pre & post war single deckers. Much more variety then the Dennis Darts we have today.

It looks gorgeous.
Much neater then my own effort at ballasting.

Maybe a 'Dean Goods' or a ROD 2-6-0 and a rail mounted howitzer could be caught on a secret military manoeuvres passing through Polbrock - which is after-all the last line of defence for Cornwall isn't it? The crew most likely would be stopping for a 'beverage' in the Pedant & Armchair afterall.

Looks fantastic already!
Very interested in seeing this go ahead.

I compared the wheels with my Olive Green Terrier - they are definitely a different shade of green compared to those. Its very bizarre as Hornby did a fantastic job of replicating Southern Olive Green Livery on the Maunsells, M7, T9, Schools Class etc - so why is this little Terrier a different colour? That's what I find bizarre.

This is an London Transport (District Railway really) G23 Driving Motor Car, in its later adapted form with a cab at each end for shuttle duties on the long closed South Acton Branch. The 23 standing for year of manufacture - in this case 1923.
Hope that Helps.

Bachmann EPB & CEP? or the Hornby VEP? Classes 411, 415, 416 & 423 respectively?

Hello David,
I had half-built some 4mm scale kits none ever to this level of completion and I really recently realised that OO Gauge just wasn't doing it for me. Hence he test of a larger scale - which I am most enjoying so far. Already thinking about where to go from here. I'd say take the plunge and have a go its what I am doing and I am enjoying every minute.
Cheers,

Looks fantastic.
The sight of No. 4 in in this livery is bringing back so many wonderful memories. Off to look at some of your other work now.

There is some vertical play on the rear driving wheels under the cab - the other two sets are fixed firmly. The cost of this one was
