FWLR ROLLING STOCK
Posted: Sun Jun 17, 2018 8:03 am
Well it’s all been topsy turvy here since moving, but I have managed to complete a sort of Rolling Stock project I working on before we were told about having to move. This was supposed to be a static Diesel engine for Anne’s Slate Mine on here Fairy Garden, but now it will who knows what will happen to it.
Anyway I asked Nicki from SLR Models if she could make me a Lister engine for it, she did and I am rather pleased with how it turned out. I have painted it a lighter green because when it’s weathered, which I have done now, it is looking good Anne say’s anyway with the oil and Diesel spills.
There is a pdf attachment with the kit which although is good, I think most people would find this a very easy kit to build.
I scratch built the cab from guess what, (yes the coffee stirrers) lol, and the cab roof is a thin piece of plasticard, with some kitchen paper again PVA’d to make it look like it is tar’d.
It will be going on the new line but has yet where………………..
