YET ANOTHER 1:32 RUSTON 48DS FINISHED.......

  This is the fourth one I've put together and strangely the first using the parts in the finished  kit, the other three were built up from test etches. A bit of subtle variation from the others also in the moving of the headlight from the cab to the bonnet front , and the addition of the lifting rings on the footplate side, fettled up from scratch......must get a proper casting done for these .....sometime  :D

For anyone contemplating a clock-powered version, this opens up interesting possibilities.

I've already got my coat...

Colin, a.k.a. soo4513... Welcome to the Forum, and with an on-line name like that, can I take a wild guess at your interests..??!!??  :scratch: (Not the Colin I know, are you..?? ;) )

If indeed, we are joined by not only another Dark Side modeller, but  a fan of a certain Mid-Western Fallen Flag, what more can I say?....  :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :thumbs: :thumbs:
I can just imagine how thrilled certain Forum members* are going to be....  :)) :)) :))

* Currently posting elsewhere "BLUE BLUE BLUE"... many times over...!!! :vista: ::) :wave:

Thats me, found out again. :)

:rant: I now propose a new Forum Rule to stop the word BLUE being typed in BLUE (or any other colour) or in very large letters...  :vista:
In the style of Monty Python, I say "Stop that, it's silly!!"...

"Blue is the best colour"....
