Scattergun MTH workshop or A Glutton for Punishment.

[mth]

5 Minuets breather from coaches to repair and weather this.....


I wanted to do 33012 with the full yellow cab, but the owner said if I did he would kill me.........

 

[mth]

After filling the swear box up over the paint issues, I’ve managed to plucked up the courage to finish this coach off.


I only had to use a brush to remove the old paint............

 

[mth]

Oh look another coach.............


Easybuild TSO.........

 

[mth]

And the next 3 finished. Easybuild coach built number 71, 72 and 73.

Time for an experiment in liverys.
Have I got the middle blue correct?

What's that Matt? Hoverspeed?

Not far off. Sealink Mk1 as ran in Scotland.

 

[Steph Dale]

Aah, jolly good. By any measure, it's not an attractive livery, but will look impressive in model form.

As some of you have asked why I still have “A Glutton for Punishment” in this thred title, see below.....

1 LMS 42ft GUV unknown kit for mods and repair. 1 GW K41 brake by Western Wagon Works in for repair and weathering/repaint. 1 MTH (the USA company not me) LMS brake for haching about and possible repaint into Blue Gray.

 

[mth]

At last, finally finished something from my own stock pile.
Yes its an Easybuild SK

 

[mth]

Why do I keep letting people tslk me into doing things

Backmann Brass class 24. Bodged by someone, most screws missing, paint has been stripped then primed on top of the loose paint. Held together by large blobs of solder including the bogies. Half the pickups wires cut and wippers fitted to one bogie.
I told the owner it was scrap, he talked me into rebuilding it.
So out came the flamethrower.
Now trying to put it back together with half of the body angle missing.

 

[mth]

Next 3 finished.

MTH LMS

Unknown kit

Western Wagon Works.

 

[mth]

After 3 years, 2x 3 course meals from money in the swear box, i declare this loco finished.

Edit:- Its a MMP kit.
