Ha ha. I'm a coachaholic! They re all planned for different kinds of trains. GWR coaches were a necessity because the BLT is on the Western Region, but LMS coaches are my real interest. Now I can't stop building them!Larry, at that rate, you'll need more than a BLT, Manchester London Road may be more appropriate.

Thanks Rob. The basic 2-stage etches can be improved a lot with additional glued-on detail and weathering.........Very time-consuming but therapeutic.Hi Larry, some fantastic work and accuracy with your builds! Your past 'name' is befitting of you!!Cheers

I am busy completing a new-build but it cannot be shown for a while. I only have enough castings to complete two more LMS etched coaches and am prevented from buying in more stock due to the non-availability of BR steam-era transfers for ex.LMS coaches.
There is no shortage of materials and transfers to build more ex.GWR coaches, but I don't need any! So it looks like I'll be spraying & lining the mountain of brass coaches for the foreseeable future, probably finishing just in time for recommencing the layout in the Spring.
I'd be starting from scratch, scratching my head as to why I was building 'em....Sounds like you need to turn your hand to LSWR coaches Larry!
