      That’s a lot of locos. You are really nailing the finish now though, they look great :thumb2:

      Do you come across the small stuff like the SECR R1 or the diesel shunter very often? Others from the Dublo range I don’t think you’ve done yet are the Metrovik Co-Bo or the Class 20. Not sure if they were three rail though. The Co-Bo was weird, four wheeled bogey at one end and a six wheeled one at the other. The real engine was pretty much a failure. :thumb2:

                  None of those yet Tim. Only diesel I've done is a few Deltics.
                  I have an 8F which is a first and someone else is sending me a Merchant Navy soon apparently.

                  I am currently busy with a load of O gauge as well ....Click image for larger version

                    Not sure what the coaches are, or even if they are coaches. They look a bit like Pullmans but are too short.

                        I was going to guess wagon lits next :thumb2: . It is the inset doors that give them away.

                          So this is mynprigress with the French set.
                          Does anyone know of someone who produces decals for these NORD locos? I am struggling to get a set.
