Here is a OO Class 20 D8015. I have weathered it as a ‘living with steam engines’ diesel in the late 50’s. I have left the headcode discs off so that my friend Ian can chose his own display to suit its duty of the day.
D8015 in Green weathered -OO
OO Gauge
OO J15 re-worked
This is a Hornby J15 that I have re-worked as an earlier variety. It has now got the ‘British Railways’ logo and has been renumbered. The Loco has then received a medium weathering consisting of a dusting of grime by airbrush and then some dry brushing to highlight various details.
HMRS Transfers, Railmatch and Humbrol paints used.

Ivatt 4MT in OO Gauge
This is a Loco that used to run on a layout that I sold several years ago. Since then it has just been stored awaiting a new project that so far has not materialised. It has now been serviced, re-numbered and BR Logo changed to an early crest. It should be going to a new home soon. It is lightly weathered, has a lamp added, Screw couplings and pipes and has real coal.

Ivatt 2MT 46465
This a OO Loco that I have just sold after having it for many years, I have renumbered it as a Local Cambridge Loco for the new owner. I have also touched up the ‘light’ weathering.
To note on this Loco is the replacement chimney in Brass, real coal and a footplate crew. I think this gives a far better model.

Rest of Nicks OO Stock
This is the rest of Nicks stock for ‘Lowe St.’ There are two 08’s, one 48DS and a few wagons. All have been weathered after fitting of loops and spratt’s as necessary. The blue 08 was factory weathered by Bachmann, I have tried to enhance it a bit, but I prefer to start with a blank canvas.

Bachmann 03’s in OO
When I sold ‘Lowe St’ to Nick I also said I would weather some more of his Loco’s and put the Spratt and Winkle loops on for him. I thinks he intends to make them DCC sound having already converted ‘Lowe St’ to a DCC system.
I am still working on two 08’s and some wagons – will be posted when finished.

Day four of my 7 in 7 in 7
This is the finished model of 37405 in what was the standard DRS livery up until about 5 years ago. This model was purchased in this livery as a limited edition. I have now detailed the Loco with all the usual DRS features and added the snow ploughs etc.

Oxford Rail N7 0-6-2T
This is the first time I have ever seen this model and I must say it certainly looks the part. My friend wanted it renumbered and weathered to a medium level, here are the results.
Note:- I have now picked the coal out with a little dry brushed gloss varnish – much improved since photos taken.

Weathered Metals 47
After weathering a half a dozen Class 47’s in a low to medium format, I decided to move up a couple of notches and make a medium to heavy attempt. After looking at some photos, this is the result.
