As a consequence of my attempts to scratchbuild GNR 6 wheel carriage underframes I finally gave in, and rather than modify Bill's sprung LSWR w-irons, draw up artwork for the correct GNR version. These are now available from Eileen's Emporium (https://eileensemporium.com/eileens-emp ... heels-4mm/).

This is what you get on the fret:

Excellent. I saw these on the other channel too.

Doubting one's own ability is a healthy thing, it reminds us to do things with thought and care, double checking as we go. How many times do people come a cropper as result of being cocky / cavalier?
