Loving that. Great beasts the Deltics…..they must have done a lot of miles over their lifetime.

Hi James
Just found this thread and had a read through from the beginning. Virtually a year's work so far. You have definitely made a fine job of these.

Thanks for all the comments, really pleased with how the windows came out as they are ones I made from thicker acetate and seem to look really good. A common issue with these is the condition I get them in they are either missing windows or they are all cracked.

Just finishing a black one too, again a scheme that never existed and still pondering it as it's just not what I want. Have done the roof cream, body black with yellow ends bit think window need doing silver to break up the expanse of black.

Bit more productivity today.....

I had a Silver King amongst others , loved it . Sold all my stock to a friend who was an avid collector.

Nice to see a Deltic in your collection, I was lucky enough to work on one for over 10 years in preservation, a real beast of a loco.
