Thank you John, very kind. Always nice to hear that people find my posts on worrying plasticard useful, it can sometimes feel like talking to an empty room. Cheers!

Trayed Me
The LOWFIT - supposedly a ‘quickie’ - gets finished. It’s taken most of last week off and on to get this far. Modelling time has been few and far.
All the white bits are ‘artisanal’ (more the latter syllable, than the former ). As mentioned previously, the white blocks are from the previous builders ‘bespoke’ tension lock solution. I took them off the last one, but they were a bugger to shift (I think they had shares in Araldite) so I’d left them in. The brakes are from Stores. I need to finish cleaning up the flash… The tie rods are 1 mm brass angle, and the vac pipes from Lanarkshire. A lowdown shot highlighted the need to add the supports between floor and solebar..
It seems like a while since I’ve done a vac fitted wagon!

A Transfer Of Appreciation
Just a little (typically over-worded
) post to give due recognition - and associated grateful thanks - to Steve at Railtec. A custom request. Ordered on Monday (after measuring existing characters on a transfer sheet with verniers to ensure I’d got it right), delivered on Wednesday. Placement the same day…
Parked in a siding for 24 hours to allow it to harden off… wish me luck with the ‘11T’ branding; it’s even smaller!
