About Me

My photo
When i left school back then i was lucky enough to enroll on an engineering apprenticeship. I think this lead me in good stead. I was always one of those children that pulled things apart but actually put them back together again. My first engine given to me at the age of Seven, a Triang Princess Elizabeth. The rest as they say is History. Later in life i got back in to Model Railways and started building Pine Road. This could lead anywhere so i hope you enjoy my Blog.

Hornby Sentinel part 2

I have finally  got back to finishing the Hornby Sentinel.
If you remember in a previous post it was stripped down to its many parts, ready to be dumped in a bath of Detol. Yeah, don't do that with this model, it don't work. You will end up with a guey mess, something like this.
a rather exspensive mistake on my part, well, can't be perfect all the time can one.
She's done.
The real thing.......
.....and the model
Rather impressed if u may say so. Just some "sprat and winkles" to fit, might be a bit of a problem as the whole chassis is cast metal, could be a challenge.
