And, with a coat of primer. I meant to mention above that the drawing shows a neat way of retaining the retaining pin, photo attached. I have cross drilled a .032" pin with a .5mm drill before but, these pins started off at .5mm and besides, I didn't have a .25mm drill. It would have been a nice touch though, maybe in a much bigger scale.

Here shes is finished together with her stable mate. The last picture shows the area where I 'store' my stock. The little piece of bare track in the foreground is the only free space that I have to put anything. I do have half a dozen items parked on my bookshelves but, if I start using that to store vehicles, there won't be any space left for books. The answer to all of this is that I may have to stop building. I'm still working on the four LSWR carriages well, three carriages and a brake van and they will need a home so, don't have to think about it for a year or so.
Oh and the brake lever isn't rusty. Its the effect of gun blue on nickel.
