The Lickey Banker - Progress

Thought I'd start it's own thread as I'm getting close to a release soon...

I think the bulk of the model is complete, I just need to finish the cab shape and add a few controls.

Hi

This model of yours is looking "Fantastic"

Can't wait until you upload it - The External Detail is extremely Photo Realistic.

It will be brilliant "banking" on the Bristol to Birmingham Route over the Lickey Incline.

Regards

Mike

Hi,
Compared it too some photo's and it's looking really good.
Bit of a cheek but any chance of having a BR numbered version?

Cheers
Clive

Paul

Are you going to add the electric lamp above the oil one.

I'll include the lamp and a BR livery in the final version.

Good excuse for a 3 part activity on Burton, Black Country and B to B routes to deliver the loco.

It would earn it's keep by hauling goods trains plus a brake coach for inspectors.

This would be the only time it would be seen away from the Lickey.
A rare cop for the train spotters.

She was tried out on Toton to Brent coal trains, and according to Essery and Jenkinson's book
she was on occasions shopped out at Gloucester Shed/Works they dont mention whether she ran
light or loaded.

This is turning into a cracking model, really can't wait to get my hands on her and a few banking activities

However, when it comes to bankers, this thing outstrips our beloved Bertha for size...

Erm...

Good to see extremely high quality stuff being produced for MSTS.
