discussion D9R - Major Maintenance

[tiking]

Hi all. Must say its been a while since I posted here. I hope you all have taken care of yourselves during these strange times. God bless you all. Now on to my post.


This is what I’ve been working on lately. It’ a D9R maintenance diorama. Lots and lots of work went into building this diorama. Many many detail and scratch built pieces, went into the construction and I am 99% done with it. So, I hope you like the results. Thanks for looking.

Hi Charles. That is excellent dude!
The wear and tear and the rust on the D9 is most convincing. If I may say it, they have to be some of the cleanest fitters I have seen in a while. It must be Monday morning lol

Hi Ian. I guess it depends on the situation. It can vary. Like you said. They probably just started on it. I guess, this is where imagination takes over.

Looks great to me Charles. So much detail to look at.....my favourite is the pallett lifter wear. This just looks completely convincing.

Wow Charles what a build, and so different. Lots of small details like the oil in the drain unit, and as Tim said the wear on the pallet truck.
