Oh, believe me, I searched for SR ones. I even contemplated making my own, too.
These are adequate. If the client wants, he can swap them out if he can find the right style.

Good plan, worked well.

Grime on the ends, some additional roof dirt, and a light squirt just along the footboards. Nothing really visible here.
How about here? Hmm. Well, trust me, it’s not as shiny and black as it was!
I think I’ll let things dry for a bit, then review properly and add more if I think it needs it. You can always add, but it’s not so easy taking away.

I tried to weather the sides, just a little bit. It didn’t really show up in photos, so you can’t take a look.
It all went a bit wrong. It looked utterly rubbish and completely amateurish. It was embarrassing, Not amazingly so, but enough to make me a bit worried about how I could rectify the problems - assuming I even could.
Happily, I’ve been able to resolve the issue, and things look a lot better now. So much so, I’ve just retouched some minor paint damage around the bogies and underframes, and I think I’ll get the big camera out again for some nice photos.

The official photographer's apprentice has been.
See the gory images here.
I guess that's pretty much a wrap on another long-winded build thread. I found some remedial work that needs attending to while I was taking the photos, which made me utter some profanities. I really would like to try and get those damned roofs to sit nicely, but I feel it is now a lost cause.
Anyway, thanks for the company on the journey. Time to concentrate on a couple of other long-term bench blockers, and then I can really get stuck into new work.
