Very nice, Barry.
Always good to see your builds. Plenty of little extras to keep the eye busy too...
Top work.

Lots of detail which I like. Very convincing. The weight and strength of all that steel is well modelled.

If everything apart from the figures are scratch built I'm really impressed!
That railway chassis looks really convincing!
Must've taken a few hours though...

Thanks guys.
Jens only parts not scratch were axle boxes and wheels and build time was six weeks full time (retired).

Just saw this one Barry, and I must say it is up to your usual outstanding caliber
Love the big guns and your "Mighty Mites" never cease to amaze me

Lovely attention to the details but even more special with the display setting you have created

Thanks for comments Jim Tony.

Another gem for your collection! You churn these things out so fast, I nearly missed this thinking it was referring to your previous build.
