Mortimer "Victoria" with repaired smokebox

Post by Narrow Minded » Mon Feb 15, 2010 10:41 am

Here's Victoria standing on a siding at the Butterley Garden Railway Association on Valentines Day.

Matt has done a 1st class job on the smokebox! Now that there's a whiff of satin/matte black paint, the dent repair is totally invisible :D and the oilers, handrail and lamp iron really set it off - Thanks again mate, "yer a diamond!"
