Thanks. I’d assumed it would be mono — but then some of it was obviously better in colour, so…

Some lovely work going on there in 3' 11" gauge . Great Stuff . Is there going to be a Bulleid Q1 ugly duckling joining your fleet ?

They’re not ugly! But thank you.

It’s been on the to-do list for years. My big issue is the wheels. Sticking, say, resin-cast or 3D print (not that I can do that) Bulleid-style ‘wheel-trims’ over the wheels of a long-ish Bachman motorblock could end up with fairly dodgy wheel widths… But I might try it.
