G'day Steamgramps
Wonderful looking loco and a great little prototype.
A question., What is the colour? What paint did you use? I seems like Stroudly green.
I hope it steams as well as it looks.
Regards
Ian

Hi
Thanks for the comments. The paint is water based auto finish matched to Great Weston coach brown. I Hope it steams to.
part of the cab roof and backsheet is removerable for driving.
Regards,
Joe.
