John, that is so nice that I hate to pick at nits. But, the numberplates have a border outside the bear, and that border should be black. Only the area inside the bear is red.

Nice to see terracotta handrails, as they should be. Brian Badger told me recently that some of his customers say they look wrong and insist that he paint them black, but we know that you are correct!

Sorry - that should read "outside the BEAD"!

You can always edit the original post to correct it!

For a first time build I think you have done remarkable.
I am just finishing a Midland ex-private owner wagon that appeared in Vol 1 of Bob Essery Midland wagons.
I have done one side but the other side is going to be more difficult with the very faded lettering.

Thanks Mike. That wagon is just superb

The second side before I add the weathering and letters.
