Its a Marathon,not a Sprint!!
The main thing,at the end of all this,is that all of us who have participated can see something for our efforts.Its not a competition,or a race,and even if it were,I'm sure you'd do well in it.
I also hope it gives any members who might be dithering over their ability to tackle anything like this confidence to try it for themselves!(especially if us four loonies can do it!)
Gentlemen…..you have nothing to fear,but fear itsself!!!:roll:
Cheers,John.B.:thumbs
PS.There's STILL time for any other loonies who'd like to join in.(He said,hopefully!!!)

Looks like a great candidate for a "make-over" - I'll be watching and learning in between trying to make mine smooth again ………:roll::roll::roll:

THREE locos,eh?? You're certainly getting into the spirit of things there….and 2 out of 3 again are LMS locos!!! Perhaps we should rename the project as "Improve an LMS loco Month".I LOVE the Princess Class as well,always been one of my personal favourites!
I like the way you drilled the holes through the existing handrail knobs.thats a really cool tip for keeping things level and correct.Nice one mate!
:pathead:cool wink
I've drilled my holes for my handrails and they'll be going on tomorrow,along with pictures being posted.
Cheers,John.B.:thumbs

Re the coke - try dropping an old penny into it. Comes up like a new minted version. Not sure what's in it but it's an amazing cleaner. :thumbs
