Hi Blmont,

Thanks for the kind words.

The engines are both from Grafar. The green one is a 0-6-0 general purpose tank and the brown one is a J94 Austerity. Both were bought from E-bay. The J94 was originally green and called something like 'Sir Robert'. It has received a brown paintjob to look like an Austerity from the Wemyss Private Railway (WPR). Still to find suitable decals.

I have another of the green engines that is undergoing major surgery to turn it into a Barcaly 0-6-0T that was also used by the WPR. I started it in January but it has been put to one side at the moment. Not enough hours to do what I want to do.

I'd like to do a couple of engines as used by the North British Railway but I'm not sure if any are available as either kits or ready built. I have seen one that I may be able to convert from the Grafar 0-6-0 GP tank. So that may be next on my to do list.

Alex
