Thanks for the comments guys. Jonte, you may remember that Talerddig Mk I had a culvert...
Sorry for the random diversion, but I uncovered this today while having a clear out!

It's B(aby) -32 days. I'm probably not going to get much modelling done after, so I thought a quick project might be in order!
Always liked the ex-LMS brakevans and have one knocking about here. I previously repainted and built a ballast box from plastic card. I thought reworking this might be a bit of fun.
I've stripped it down and removed my paint job using Fairy Powerspray. I'm planning on a few quick tweaks and a repaint.
Tweaks will be:
Replace rainstrips
Add glazing to the duckets
Add the metal reinforcement strip (?) above the bufferbeams
Replace the buffers with ones from Lanarkshire Models

It's a nice model, isn't it? The thing that makes the biggest difference to this model is to replace the roof. Here's one I made earlier on a Bill Bedford chassis (and which needs weathering, though I have stuck the thing down since!). I formed this from two layers of 20 thou' heat formed around an [empty] wine bottle. Masochistically, I replaced the handrails but I'm not sure that's essential; it's a huge fiddle and drove me bananas.
