Oh my god, wow, look at that, it's incredible, and there was me being disappointed it was no longer in ex-EWS DB, great work there DB !!! I want one @cambo74  - Is 90018 already decalled ? 

 

I cant wait to see this up close on 4M25.

 

 

Decals not on yet so can alter it to this by all means .... looks nice

Cheers Ben - sure you'll agree its a horrible colour to paint

Yeah not the prettiest ...... will post a pic when painting finished - very impressed with your effort.

Ben 

Cool looks good ....

Went for Flint Grey with some medium roof grey added - pretty happy with the result ....

Yeah i think looking at it noe it is grey ..... weird how the light can make a colour look so different ...

Yeah definitely as is now ..... think its gonna be another of those 'depends on the light'  colours ...

Hi there - been asked to do a commission of 60074 - anyone got any clues on a paint match for the Blue ??

Looks a bit like Caledonain Teal but possibly a bit bluer......

Ben

Don't forget the raft of Class 20s with no lights, 37s and Deltics which are a must have for any announcement ....

Are you referring to the RNA barrier wagon?

Bachmann 38-007...

Sorry no - I mean the Mk2 Coach pack

Don't know if anyone from Bachmann is watching but with the Accurascale KUO Wagons due soon - wouldn't a re-run of these make sense ....... I know people dont do joined up thinking though, so I wont hold my breath .....

Is there any update in progress for the Blue Liveried Highland 24/1 ???

Just now, Accurascale Fran said:

 

Actually we measured one in Romania so it's in HO. You are all okay with that, right??

 

RIGHT????

 

Ah thats fine then - as you were .....

Think it looks 0.000000001 mm to short .... everywhere .... just getting in before someone else points it out .....

DISCLAIMER - the above statement was meant tongue in cheek and the model looks superb though just waiting for someone to criticise .... no ?? anyone ??

Anybody got any tips on removing the body on these locomotives.

 

I'd like to gain access to the cab to fit a driver...

4 screws for the roof hatch, 2 screws (1 at each end) and then a further 2 by the bogies .....

Should be clear in the instructions supplied ..

A couple more .... 90029 on Grand Central and 90037 in EWS/DB with faded numbers .....

Freightliner Orange 90 put back together ...

Grand Central one has had transfers applied .....

Just in time, you'll have to get your Intercity stripey paint out in the near future by the looks of it...

Was hoping it would be a simple renumber job - but dont think it is - will check out the pictures of the real thing and compare .......

A few variations of the Bachmann Class 90 going through the workbench .....

Thanks guys - ordered what i needed from them ... and more !

Hi there - does anybody know of someone who does transfers of stick on labels for the destination blinds for second Gen Units - particularly looking for Class 153 & Class 156 atm in 4mm.

Thanks in advance

Ben 

Also 541 when in intercity had flush ends at one end so you'd have to fill it ..... sadly thats why it commands such a high price as a fairly unique body shell .....

Painted the depot interior ready for fixing ......
