Windows and doors on the building are now getting some paint and the main building is almost ready for top coats, might be another day or so before a photographic update on that one.
In the meantime my 2nd 26 is nearing completion, Cam's airbrush is back out and we have the transfers so I've really got to get the chassis done. New bogie frames arrived some time ago and Heljan have altered the mouldings. Sand boxes and all the pipework are now separate parts on the new 33's bogies so when I ordered the new bogies they came missing all the additional details as Gaugemaster split all the parts. I managed to get the actual Sandboxes but couldn't be bothered to to through the faff of trying to explain what bits where missing in terms of pipework. All added with single core wire with the plastic stripped off., I am actually quite please with how these have come out. I could go to town with this but I just want it done now. Heljan also don't do the the early type angled steps. These were an opportunity purchase from Steve Beatie, a faff to solder but once painted they will be spot on. Lastly the 26 in question has the alternative speedo arrangement created from a plasticard offcut and a piece of wire.
