Not entirely sure what you're after? I have spare generic Accucraft Bufferbeams.

Do you mean the type made by milton loco works, with rivet detail?

Well, Milton's were an odd shape. All I'd like is a set of detailed, decent coloured bufferbeams but can't seem to find a supplier?

dont think anyone does them "off the shelf", you'd probably have to commision them.

I made a set for a 16mm Baldrig, then a set for a RH JACK with radius corners.
Now building the same thing for Mortimer.

It's an Accucraft Here is the loco in another thread

The weathering was mainly with chalk pastels. Rub them on sandpaper and paint the dust on and spray a coat of matt varnish to fix. There is some airbrush work aswell.
