edrig update
i purchased some trimline at brighton, and fitted it tonight.
it doesnt look very good, i might even take it off and re do it, but its very hard when its 2 sepparate thin lines next to eachother.
and i also made its regulator rc.

I find it rather easy, I use my vast, pointless knowledge of narrow gauge locomotive names, think of a loco the model is similar to, then think of a name similar to the prototype name, and hey presto, you have a name!
Alternitavley, a name them after the builder, or the person who donated the loco to the railway, one way or another I get a name! Although the name rarely sits on the loco .

edrig has had a few bits done to it recently.
* means they arent in the picture
they are-
-red rods
-wooden buffers
-painted chimney cap
-darj lamp
-painted drains
-front brass bits on cylinders painted black
-painted reg
-painted reverser
-bbq black painted smokebox, which is close to matt black. but seems to dry properly when fired up.
-bucket
-new exaust pipe, not chuff pipe, now sounds similar to a coal fired edrig*
-smoke deflector, which is more to deflect water and oil*
- vacume pipes*
next will come some multi height coplings, or somthing diffrent. if i can find some that will fit the edrig buffer holes.
new steps
creme painted cab
maybe some rectangular buffer beams.
maybe rivited tanks
maybe new smokebox
and possibly a new back, one without the hole, and maybe a painted boiler in the cab.
