EWS class 37s, 37670 "St. Blazey T & RS Depot" & 37109 with the Hull Docks to Doncaster 'Enterprise' freight at Melton, East Yorkshire - 20/05/2004.
Gotta love an ICON. Skip the line, and get this one in your garage years before your buddies. I'm sure they won't be jealous that you got yours first.
Presented here is my final version (for now!) of my interpretation of a BR Class 03 diesel shunter. It's not modelled on any one particular loco, and I'm afraid I haven't simulated the wasp stripes on the rear. Tweaks since the last versions are improved cab window parts choice, use of a minifig bracket to hold the front lamp in place, and a 1x2 sliding part at the top of the front steps. The jackshaft crank could actually be red, which might make the real-brick engineering a tiny bit simpler, by using a 2M Technic lever instead.
A 7mm model of the SECR wainwright D Class. Handbuilt in South Korea for the Lee Marsh Model Company. Originally finished in SECR pre-grouping livery the owner decided that a repaint in early BR mixed traffic lined black was in order. Some boiler fittings were removed and I also added the extra lamp brackets and coal space extension plates as fitted by the Southern Railway. Finished as 31075 which was given a going over for rail tours in the mid 50's. Hand lined with Fox Insignia and Severnmil Plates.
7mm scale MOK kit built by Brian Dale. Finished in late BR livery and now off to the paint shop for weathering. The model is fitted with Slaters wheels and an ABC motor gearbox. just needs a few minor fittings added when Brian gets it back.
Built by Roger Scanlon from a David Andrews kit. One of the last of the class to survive hauling rail tours right up to the end.
My lego model of a British Railways Class 08 diesel shunter, in BR blue. It is 7 studs wide, and the central axle can slide left and right to ensure smooth running round curves.
Finished build with "wasp stripe" stickers
The BR Class 56 is a 3,250 bhp diesel-electric locomotive, built by Brush/Electroputere and British Rail Engineering Limited (BREL).
Finally came round to rendering this engine. It looks absolutely beautiful rendered. Still working the bogies though.
7mm model built by Roger Scanlon from a David Andrews kit. Running on Slater wheels with a MSC motor gearbox. Insignia from Fox and plates by Sevrnrnmil.
Built by David Hill from one of his own Gladiator kits. Southern region heavy freight locomotive in 7mm scale.
7mm DJH Loco kit built by Dan Haines. Powered by ABC motor gearbox and Slaters wheels. Hand lined with Fox Insignia and plates from Severnmil.
black beauty.
