Nice build of a famous loco, first train timed at 100mph in May 1904....
Tidy build Pete. Nice one.... :thumb2:

Evening Peter,
If someone is paying you to do this you may wish to consider the following:
painting the tops of all the springs black on the side of the chassis rails
It also seems devoid of orange coach lines
The front buffers look to be taking a bit of a nosedive but that could just be the angle of the photo

The person I am doing this for did not want a top quality build as it's going to be on a club layout out the a sort of crowd filler as he has all of my loco builds so I know that he will be happy.
I did try ammo mig 199 copper but as I was brushing I found it a bit to watery so I used tamiya xf-6 copper which was better.
