Fell to temptation and bought another 22: 6311 no headcode boxes and small yellow panel. Needs bits added and a visit to the weathering shop.

 

[Alan]

The airbrush has worked some magic.

 

[Simon]

What a difference - another very believable bit of weathering

That's an impressive piece of weathering, Alan, especially as you seem to have done all that in just 6 hours!

 

[Alan]

Many thanks Simon and the Capt.

 

[Easterner]

Another fantastic piece of weathering there Alan!

I take it as you still haven't fell to temptation of a Class 14 yet.......

 

[Alan]

No Josh, I haven't. hope your hand is recovering well. When will we see you again?

 

[Easterner]

Yes, out of the cast/splint for 80% of the day now - Just physio to get the movement back.

Probably week beginning 14th April, I am back this weekend for a flying visit for the gala.

 

[Alan]

Might see you up at Sheringham if I can make the effort to get up there. Shame about the A4 not being there.

 

[Alan]

Double headed 63xx's

 

[Simon]

That looks fabulous - all you need now is a "Cornishman" headboard!

I really like your layout and modelling, it has a great sense of time and place

Simon

 

[Alan]

Many Thanks Simon.

 

[Alan]

I do like the Bradford Barton B&W pix

 

[Jordan or Plymouth Mad]

Congratulations on your article in Hornby Magazine, Alan - Wencombe looks great there too.
Not my usual choice of the mags, so I have to admit to not actually buying it, but Browsing is what "Smiffs" is for, isn't it...??!!

 

[Alan]

Many Thanks Jordan, I occasionally use Smith's or my local store Lathams at Potter Heigham as my local library

 

[Captain Kernow]

I read the article last night as well, borrowed the magazine from a friend. Very good, Alan, the layout looks fantastic, as usual, some great photos, too.

I was hoping to see a photo of the goods shed, but it doesn't seem to feature - you described it as a plastercast kit - just wondering which one - any chance of a sneak view on here, please?!

Alan,

The layout looks great, but I must confess I prefer your own more naturalistic photos to the more "helicopter overview" shots in eh article. Keep 'em coming please!
