Its surprising how many last minute jobs there are to do. Youv'e painted it, then fit couplings, crew, coal, buffers, wieght, roof and of course body to chassis.
Today, she pulled her first train into Exton Quay.

- 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.

Alan Gibson Adams G6 kit part 11 The Final.
This is the last post on the making of this engine. Part 11, if you ever see a kit for sale buy it, its a lovely kit to put together. Just under a month it has taken, not that there was any rush, but would be nice to have it at Alexandria Palace at the end of March.
Chuffed to bits. She is looking all new and shinny, i just have'nt got the heart to weather her yet.

Nice job!
Subtle weathering is all it needs, I'm sure the crew would keep it clean.
It has turned out well, thank you for the coment.
Colin.
The kit looks like it went together really well. I have now got hold of a set of etchings for the Gibson G6. Do you still have the instructions as I am trying to work out what goes where.
Thanks
Duncan
