Another Grimy Week!
This week in the workshop, we have completed the weathering of twelve Seacow wagons, which are now prepared for delivery to our customer. As a point of interest, is there an established term for a group of twelve Seacow wagons? 😎

After a number of weeks carrying out servicing and repairs of locomotives and rolling stock, it was a pleasant change to paint a set of 3D printed figures for one of our customers. The figures are from Smart Models, the Home Guard, with a remarkable resemblance to Dad's Army!
