    Hi Ian,

    I particularly like the ventilated meat van. Am Icorrect in saying that these doors open ? Really nice kits.

    I've just been back on to the laser wood kits and bought a few more. I have bought previously from them and their kits are good.

    Cheers

    Toto

    Hi Toto yes the doors do open as do the cattle trucks but they're fiddly so most of mine will be glued shut (except the odd ones for their respective sidings) I've got a variety of very old Airfix kits and the moulding is a lot crisper. Which kits did you get?

    Hi Ian,

    I ordered various arched shop front and workshop panels, a coaling stage and a coal skaith. I have some platform kits and platform canopies from a previous order.

    Their stuff is really good. Very crisply detailed. I could be a regular of theirs. .......:avatar:

    I like to see the wagons that can be posed with doors open and with a variety of loads.

    Nice to see these kits.

    Toto

    You are a bad man. I've got to wait until June before I see any sunshine worth talking about. Maybe I could fit a sun bed in the shed. .....:avatar:

    Cheers

    Those wagons do look good to me and very nicely put together. Looks like the scapel or file needs to come out again to remove some flash, an easy job. ;)

    I do have to do some more weathering myself, and that would consist of 6 x Presflos, 2 x TEA bogie tankers and a few conflats... Maybe another video of my methods wouldn't go astray.

    Cheers, Gary.

    I think I'd be the same. Warm weather ...... Out on the roof top with a beer ...... An enviable position to be in.

    This is a great plank, or I should say a group of planks (planketts ?). Looking forward to your scenery and detailing. :thumbup:

    Cheers, Gary.
