Scattergun MTH workshop or A Glutton for Punishment.

[mth]

Well after loosing contact with the owner of this loco for about 10 years, I finally got it finished.

Lima class 33 converted into a 26.
It came to me with dodgy bogies and tar paint finish.

Weathering and repair job now finished.
From this.....


To this......

Also found out that the main gears on the Heljan 37 split headcode box are a different size to the latter body cl 37.

I managed to get hold of some of the pre-production moldings of the LLC DS48 to have a play with.....so I went with this fictitious livery.




And before anyone points it out, the Reading Signal Works loco was a DS88

First post on my page this year. Where has the time gone?
To prove I’ve not been idle

Ex Lima wagon, stressed then weathered

Heljan Cl42 renumbered and weathered.

14 Buzz Models Type L Freightliner Containers with transfers from Railtec.
Add to that, numbering and weathering 6 locos, building 4LAV unit, converting 6 wagons from car flats into bogie bolsters, and starting a DJH cl55.

Anyway, Easybuild has invaded again

Now add to my last post, another 4LAV, 4DD, a 313 and
