This is a medium weathered 27040. I am starting to catch up a bit with friends stock – but still a long way to go. This one is heading to Australia in the future.

BR 2MT 78018 in O Gauge
This is a loco I have had for a few months and have been slowly working on it. Yesterday I completed it with a Medium to Heavy weathering. It was a partial repaint and touch up as well as cab detailing and re-transferring warning flashes.

Catching up with some O Gauge weathering as well – very diverse subjects.

OO weathering- Sentinal/O4
Still trying to catch up with my weathering jobs – here is a couple I did this afternoon.

Class 04
2 Thompson O Gauge Full Brakes
Here are two Darstead/Ellis Clark Thompson Full Brakes – one in lined Crimson and one in lined maroon. These are very nice and robust coaches and weather very well. Highly recommended.
Must admit these coaches would go well with the Heljan Maroon CCT’s. See previous post.

P.O Wagon in O Gauge
This is one of very few O Gauge P.O wagons I have weathered – it is a Slaters or similar with pre-printed sides. The plank joins are not as deep as some other brands, but I managed to get some semblance of shadowing in the joins – sadly this model has no planking on the inside and it shows and looks flat! I was given this to weather many months ago, but slowly catching up. If this was my wagon, I would definitely give it a full coal load.

At last I have finished this Parkside O Gauge Kit – I purchased it nearly six months ago and it has been pushed back many times, it is now finished. It will be used on my O gauge steam layouts.

This is the last couple of wagons from my recent weathering work – just did the dry brushing over the weekend.
O1 & O4 Weathering.
This was a re-numbering and weathering job from my Mate Mike. When they arrived the O1 was in LNER and the O4 was in ROD livery, both in OO. The O1 is weathered to a medium standard and the O4 was to a heavy standard including some large rust patches. The usual Airbrushing and dry-brushing was used.
LNER Ammunition Wagon
This is a NIU Models OO Kit. It was made and painted by my friend Ian Hammond. His instruction to me for weathering was ‘very dirty and neglected’ as they spent long periods in sidings. My aim was to try and weather it so that it retained that very sturdy and bulky look.
