It looks well, John. Is it MSC, Albion or another manufacturer's kit?

Yep, all of Stroudley's designs have a great deal of character; thanks for sharing

After chatting to Graham the other week this coach came up in conversation so I've had another look at it I need to get some new brushes though as the old ones seem a bit splayed at the ends . I'd forgotten how tactile 7mm is
