Having made a few purchases, I thought that I should create this thread.
Starting with a Dapol EWS 08, I have fitted a YouChoos Zimo MS440D sound decoder with a 17,000 uF stay alive, suitably wrapped in tape and fits nicely down the side and a YLR 302815 2W speaker which fits neatly in the space behind the radiator and the decoder block. I have then started the weathering with a couple of coats of MIG 'grease etc' and will add further washes to appropriate areas over the course of the next week or so.
Moving well up the size scale, there is a 47/4 in LLBlue
for the time being, fitted with an MX635R until the large sound decoders are available once more. A second (top) coat of Klear has been applied and weathering will commence once the body comes off for the decoder installation.
I have also acquired a Class 60 in GBRf livery - 60021 Penyghent which is still to have an MX635 fitted as per the 47. Pictures to follow.
regards
Mike
