Now for 2011 is to finish the trackwork and electrics and to acquire a class 142 Pacer in GMPTE livery. A 'brucie' bonus would be a JLTRT 37. best start saving then,
Just like everyone else I've got loads of stuff to finish off too:
Bulleid 11001 research at the NRM, then I can give it some brake gear, plumbing and a proper cab interior.
'Continental' coach. With the last couple of construction conundrums sorted I can now get this complete.
'Ironside' from the Agenoria kit; I've had the chassis running for ages and now need to find the time to get the bodywork built. In theory it's required for a show in October.
The chassis for the Springside 2251 also needs completing. It can then serve as a reference/testbed for all our future 0-6-0s.
Patterns for various Southern-related parts; including inside valvegear components for Drummond locos and a couple of other things I have up my sleeves.
And then there's a new project, which will take up most of the year. The area we're modelling would see most of its services operated by 'U' class 2-6-0s, so I'll be building a batch of three from the David Andrews kits. Then, hopefully, a test etch for a 'Rebuilt River' followed up with the couple of those we need for the layout.
