Ah, but even then, when you've solved the grey / red riddle, you notice that faded out green goods stock - and don't you start to think............................................ :idea:

i've been looking around the rolling stock and photos sections to see if there is anything from a while back that looks nice, but still, yet again, the cream and olive still haunts! :lol:

My wagons are going to be re-painted in dark brown, simular to the accucraft stuff but slightly lighter

Nope, it aint a bug box!

But i must say they have turned out really well Mr B! there were some slight annoyances though, as the writing didn't want to work, so i have had to go without :(

The 4 plank open wagon is from IP, i didn't know it was laser cut until i opened it as well! it fits together prefectly!

Is it prototype or freelance? I take it it is a coach and not a wagon?
