Very nice..
I think you need a break from motive power, and go back to goods stock?

Work has started on the next engine. I wonder what this will turn out to be...... other than a shoe box on wheels.
Coming Soon!

I thought they were called "sheds" up your part of the world.

Sheds or shoeboxes. The latter more now class 66s exist.
Speaking of the shoebox......
The CAD work is complete so hopefully it won't be long until it makes its first appearance. Just need to return a printer to operation then I can slot it in hopefully in time for the GMES gala a week Saturday. If not, very close behind.
Also the 141 has received a upgrade with walkway handrails and side grills. Rather pleased with how they've turned out and a sign that maybe 3D printed grills are the way to go. Its certainly giving me upgrade ideas for existing models.

They look great. Are they filament or resin printed?

They're all Filament printed which means a element of sanding involved. Speaking of Sanding.......
Both 33s and the 141 were fully finished off for the GMES Gala at the beginning of the month. All looking amazing in their new paint jobs. Lots of sanding involved which I'll have to do again once the 73 is ready! The 141 will be finished off probably as 146 with CIE Crests in the CIE Early Livery (although adding the white lines is tempting...), the 33/0 is 33052 'Ashford' and the 33/s is 33202 'Dennis G Robinson'.
Onto the next one. Which happens to be the 73........
