A visitor to the yard but did not escape before they dismantled it - a small diesel critter built by the Australian DAY CO - a real odd bod the driver sits about 8ft
in the air ! - the model was constructed by "Gordon the Flying Scotsman " hopefully he will give a run down on the build

We have been a very busy lad, haven't we, young Barney? Not only does the steam critter under construction look positively outstanding (and disgustingly perfect), the shed and its junk assortment credible and attractive, but it also seems you have worked out some issues with resizing your jpeg images for our annoying forum software. Satisfactory. -- Russ

Looks great! It's really coming together nicely!

Beautiful work on the details and the coloring.  Gotta love the "Critter"!

Barney, Good job getting Gordon back in the game. His critter and your diorama go together like flotsam & jetsam.

[Sami]

This diorama and this details are perfect !

[Barney]

Well was hoping to get the steamer into the spray shop BUT ! many parts still want a good clean up + some rivets are missing and others have popped up !
most parts still trial fit only and some bits need completely doing again - Although the engine is destined for the scrap yard I think it still needs to be a bit "smarter " in appearance !!
I think a week off should do it then start again to finish it

It will be "Roof Less" with Ivey growing up the sides

Front and rear wooden (rotting) beams will be fitting with the coupler pockets rusting
