    Another HAA with yellow cradle almost finished. Again copied from a photo of the prototype and numbered correctly still has it's AYR branding but with the remmnants of it's Barry branding still in place but painted out. Some graffiti tags in evidence too. As usual transfers from Railtec Transfers.

    Great work. That Sunblest bread van brings back memories. I got taken to A&E in one exactly like that about 1979 when I cut the top of my thumb off!

    Dapol 08

    Nick G replied to Kickstart's topic in Dapol

    I have several 08's all fitted with Zimo sound chips. These come mapped so the correct lighting functions work. You can have white one end red the other directional or you can select shunting lights one white one red both ends.

    The plate covering the coupling lifts up doesn't it to make coupling easier?

    The answers to those two questions are as follows, not sure and not sure! I guess I just like weathering HAA's...

    Another filthy HAA with faded railfreight cradle and various patches completed in 2007 condition, this time 353233.

    Hope I am not boring you all with these HAA/HMA photos? Anyway here is another yellow cradle ex trainload coal version I have finished. Its a HMA with plenty of patches copied from a prototype photo and numbered correctly.

    Another Dapol HAA almost finished. This time a faded filthy ex trainload coal version (yellow cradle). I quite like the yellow cradle versions and have another two to do. As usual transfers by Railtec Transfers which I have chopped up some of the number panels and fitted individual numbers to get the correct number for the wagon I was copying. Before and after photos...

    The next 2007 era HAA is in the early stages of weathering and fading. This will be HAA 350145 with faded yellow cradle, before work started and current progress pictured.

    I think I will call the EWS hopper done.

    More work recently transforming the HAA which has become an EWS heavily weathered HMA. Not finished it needs a coat of matt varnish to seal the transfers then another coat of weathering to blend it all in.

    Nice work, Scimitar looks great.

    Thanks Trev. Great photo isn't it, one of my favourites.

    On the workbench this weekend a Dapol HAA with brown cradle. This will become a filthy HMA number 355863 with an EWS and filth cradle. I have already painted the under frame and the cradle ends with frame dirt. The mechanisms for opening the hopper doors are picked out in white and unusually it has one yellow and one red axle box cover. Next step will be weathering the hopper then decals.

    Saturday shunt with 08737. Another stunning Photo by Chris Nevard for Model Rail magazine.

    Thanks Steve, I will have a look at your progress.

    Having a change from HEA’s and HAA’s today but still the 2007 theme. An OAA in a bit of a hybrid Railfreight / EWS livery still work in progress.

    Another HAA finished again copied from a photo of the prototype 360651 in 2007 condition.

    I modelled 00 for 30 odd years and have been exhibiting since 2002 with various 00 layouts. Since moving to 0 gauge I can safely say I will never build another 00 layout again. In fact I am just starting the boards for my second 0 gauge exhibition layout which will be only 5ft x 2ft secenic.

    6' x 2' and the cost isn't much more than 00 now for wagons and locos if you shop around.
