Brilliant!!!

I actually though the first pic was a photoshopped background at first glance! It works really well.

Great post

Fantastic stuff!

I just notice Apple Green Engines can supply a P2 front. Might be worth a punt for less than a tenner?

A nice story & the Loco looks excellent.

Which A4 is next on the operating table?

It's a credit to your honesty that you owned up! I wonder how many people would've known LF never ran in that condition? I certainly didn't!

PS. I do like the last pic - very 'LNER publicity department'

I really like the disused turntable! A great idea & very original.

As Jon says above, its nice to see a variation on the much more common late 50's/early 60's BR liveries. Top stuff!

Looking forward to the A2/2 too.

Looking really good there. Will the V2 valve gear be a straight 'bolt on' job?

I'm half way through making one of these. I didn't know window etches were available so I used strips of vinyl for the window frames.

Can't say I'm particularly looking forward to doing the roof, so I'm going to have a dry run with a cereal box first.

Starting to look the business now

Wow! That looks fantastic! Superb grubiness.
