Good job that man ! I have one of those RB's to build at some point - maybe in ten years time - mutter, mutter  It would be nice to see the whole lot together.

Hi MTH,
They look fantastic
Whose/what did you use for the curtains? I especially like the almost closed look
I have just finished a Easybuild FK , i used the Peter Cowling curtains on mine but they are all in the tied back position :

Wow... what a lovely looking rake :wave:
They look super......  cracking job you've done. Hope to see them in action somewhere soon. (Please put a 42 or a 52 at the head )

Nah - 40s were heavy & slow, and gave you tinitus.... if it's British it needs a [s:1mm3zi05]Deltic[/s:1mm3zi05] er umm... I mean a Western on the point... but best of all would be something from EMD, or four or five of 'em...

Thanks for the comments

I think the first plan is to use 2 class 24, or the 86 im trying to build, but that's upto ian

Very nice rake

Yes, and used a piece of plastic card as a template.

so simply, but very effective  :wave:

Very nice interiors  8).........I use thick orange paper for my first class curtains 

 

[28ten]

That is pretty effective looks about right without being overdone. the only thing that worries me is the chunky window surround - which is totally out of your control

Yes they are definitely a flaw in an otherwise excellent kit
