EH2 - Virgin stock and other odds and ends

Well I thought it would be worth adding to the Virgin liveried Mk2F's I had already done with a few of these!

Image

A Mk2 RFB, now this is a straight reskin on the FO so it does still retain the interior as is, if people do not mind this then I will more than happy to include it with the rest of the Virgin stock below.

Image
Image

Now these are the Mk3 TRUB's repainted to represent the RFM types as they were rebuilt into these during the 90's, as there are 2 versions of them, they are both represented here, as with the RFB I will be more than happy to stick it with the rest of the stock if they do not mind the slight fudging needed to make this possible.

Image
Image

Finally of course the FO and TSO versions in the same livery!

Image

Also something from the locomotive paint shops, at least one of the EWS liveried class 86's, this is still work in progress with a few refinements to go, I will do a couple in clean and mucky condition as well as some variations on some other liveries so will let you know on the progress as and when they come :)

Looking outstanding Daryn.

I really am having trouble keeping up with all the EH2 stock coming out - got a big backlog to install now ;-)

To add to those above and to compliment the Intercity stock already in EH2, I have done a full set as with the Virgin stock in the last version of the Intercity livery before privatisation, also with them fitted with the central locking that they had fitted during that time too.

Also I have been looking into doing some of the other variations of the Intercity livery that was carried by various members of the class 87's, so far complete are, 87022 ". o' the North" and 87028 "Lord President"

Absolutely incredible work there... I can see me knowing WCE like the back of my hand with all this stock. Love the 87s, they looked good in those colours. The RFBs are particularly welcome. There's lots of reskins in the works for 86s and 87s, and I'm getting very excited!!!!

Brilliant!

Glad I didn't have to do all these for EH2, Mind you i am having trouble keeping up with modifying models as well!

I'll try and get all those done by the weekend.

Oh my god!

Those are the best stock that I am dying to use on the West Coast Express route. All we now need is a MkIII DVT, Class 90 and we are cooking as they say :wink:. Sorry - I am just so excited to read this page now. I am looking forward to downloading these puppys to my collection.

Well Done Mate :D.

To agree with some of the comments already made. Think your re-skins look fantastic and cant wait for more of them to become available. Keep up the good work.

Regards,

Devon

Would there be a remote chance of a Mk3 BFO at all? Don't rush, I see you have a lot on your plate at the moment, Regards, Doug

I like the RFO's that have been done but any chance of doing one with the TSO interior without the FO interior and yellow band, so it looks like the cafe/buffet carriage that GNER use on their 225 Mallard services please? Both Virgin and Intercity would do fine, :wink:

It has been a bit quiet from myself of late, life and work had taken its toll and prevented me from doing what I wanted to do and so only now after being one of the few that had to work on his xmas holidays I have the free time to get back to these as well as my other work :)

As far as coaching stock requests, I will have a look at these, but the non-loco hauled stock I will have to pass on, mainly as it is not the same carriage as such so it would not fit all that well, the BSO I have looked at and failing other takers I may consider doing it as long as you don't mind the missing footsteps and other internal modifications that I will be unable to make :wink: :)

Still working through some things and hopefully will see release very soon, however here are a few that have been released today :D
