Excellent piece of railway modelling Ratch, that has turned out very nicely indeed. Looks great on the layout too.

That's superb Ratch. I now need some of those for my layout so can you tell me what colour/paint type you used for the brown please. I have some Authentics still knocking around somewhere, as well as some of the more recent Humbrol Acrylic railway range, including Bauxite for example, but I suspect that brown you've used to perfect effect is something a bit more basic, no?!
Cheers mate.

Thanks Syd and Al, I used Vallejo Model Color 139 70846 Mahogany Brown for the Bauxite, which I think is not too bad a match (especially when weathered). I had to scratch one end panel and bought Hornby wheels as there were none in the box :roll: mind you, it runs superbly now :razz:
