It is always nice to see a model alongside the prototype, here is the Cavalex 56098 with the real locomotive. Our thanks to GB Railfreight for their help and support with our Class 56 project and to UKRL at Leicester for allowing us to visit their depot for this event

Finally finished my old Heljan Western - ready for the retro fleet on Cradley Bridge and destined to pull a long rake of china clay wagons. Crew figures from Modelu and plates from Shawplan ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป #TMRGUK

Quick project for the workbench - turning the YWA salmons into a YFA. Easy with the crane kit from West Hill Wagon Works Suitably weathered and with just some lengths of rail to add, it adds a bit of variety to the infrastructure rake ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป #TMRGUK

Finally finished off my Dapol FEA-B Fastline rake. Looking nice and sparsely populated as they did towards the end of their operating days. Next up is to sort my Fastline liveried Hornby Class 56 with weathering and sound ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป #TMRGUK

Started on a rake of Bachmann Europe JJAโ€™s, repainting and weathering them to look like a Network Rail rake. Sacrilege I know as these are quite collectible but I thought meh and went ahead anyways ๐Ÿ˜œ Almost 3 done now and should look nice when finished #TMRGUK

Final finishing touch and another rake of Railfreight era cavalexmodels BBAs have been finished. Managed a couple of EWS examples too. Loads from the excellent Goodwood Scenics Ltd really finish them off #TMRGUK #IMRGUK

Playing catchup on some recent projects I forgot to put up - this short rake of Bachmann Europe TEAs have been debranded, detailed and weathered - makes up a nice short rake #TMRGUK

Another project catchup post. Went to town on the Rapido Trains UK Satlink Lomac. Lots of additional detail and weathering really brought out the detail in this model #TMRGUK

First of my accurascale nuclear consists to reach the workbench was the dragon rake PFAโ€™s. Medium weathering on these, plus a few extra bits of detail. Hunt couplings used within the rake plus a bit of extra weight to keep the wagons seated. #TMRGUK #accurascale

Another Class 60 from cavalexmodels has appeared (oops ๐Ÿ˜‰) this time in DC Rail Freight version livery from Hornby Magazine and Key Publishing. Lovely detail and this is the full sound version too, so Iโ€™ll have to have a play later ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป #TMRGUK

Almost there with my latest Network Rail 153 Video Inspection train - just got to paint the front cameras up and Iโ€™m calling her done! Converted from an old Central Trains liveried Hornby unit Iโ€™ve also added white inspection LEDs under the body #TMRGUK
