Morning all

It's been a while since I posted here. The updates have all gone onto Bleat Wharf ' s thread.

Here are a few photos to keep things bubbling along.

Over the next couple of weeks I shall be doing a few jobs on Mutton ahead of it's next outing in early June. I shall pop updates on here accordingly.

A bit of Bleat then........

Portrayed by Hornby ( and others!) as an ex-L&NER loco coal wagon enquires made elsewhere indicate it's basis is that of a RCH private owner jobbie..

I'm happy to accept it as is for now and present the above views.......before and after..

Thank you Jonte.

I have a few more wagons to do ahead of Mutton's next public outing two weeks today.

However, the priority is resolving the running issues with the fourth Radial. I hope to tackle this today.

I have also collected the parts for the 700 and will also be tackling that.....by only if I can sort out the Radial.

Brian, I believe that the holes were there for when the wagon was empty and the latches were undone, you could put your hand in and pull open the door if it was stuck. It saves having handles etc. (unless I am totally wrong, which will be pointed out by someone!) Cheers, Earl
