Hi Jay Who’s buffers did you order for your Gannets please? I’ve had one printed and need suitable buffers to complete. Steve

I think looking again I will use the same loco type numbers on the buffer beams. Thanks again for your input.

I am in the final stages of a Bachmann conversion of a Drewry 04 shunter into an early Wisbech & Upwell version, as delivered in 1952. which number transfers were used on the early shunters cab side? Steam loco numbers? Also I need to add the number onto the buffer beams at each end. I have added pictures below of what I am trying to achieve.

David Smith has already got a Black 5 on the mainline, 44932. As you say it is also a storage/overhaul facility. I’ve no doubt the new owner will be made known in time.

Severn Valley Railway have sold their Black 5. Details in the link below. Anyone know where it is off to? https://www.railadvent.co.uk/2023/08/severn-valley-railway-confirms-sale-of-steam-locomotive.html

I have done a similar modification on my Brits and Clan locomotives also. Gives a much improved visual appearance.
