Excellent work Jonathan. The panel variation is terrific.

I did note what appears to be one piece of lining missing on the first of the Dia 303 brakes - top left. Did the Dia 245 have 'third' designation on its doors?

Now for the correct tender?

I'm currently close to finishing my J3 and contemplating building a J1 from Graeme's resin J6. I hadn't realised I would need to chop it up as much - oh well.

It was great to have a number of conversations with Tony at our convention in Sydney last weekend.

Regards

Andrew

Well thank you for your kind comments. These are really the 'I've been looking at these for weeks, let's see what the camera spots' pictures and a number of things came out.... the 'Third' lettering and the missing gas gauges have been attended to, the lining will be redone this evening and as for picture 4... well, there's always one, isn't there?

Mike T has privately (and quite correctly) pointed out that there should be a monogram on the lower door panel of each of the 3rd class vehicles. I may try to get a transfer together for that but it won't be before the Wakefield show.
