D6
Rob asked if I would put the occasional post on here so I will start with one of my first WAGR models - in this case it is Hunslet 0-4-0ST D6 known in its early days as "Little Tom" and used at first as the Fremantle Jetty shunter.
The model has a scratchbuilt body of brass and nickel silver built on a much modified "Branchlines" pug replacement chassis. Wheels are Sharman (I think) and the motor is a Mashima. There are a couple of errors which I have noticed over the years and I still haven't got around to getting some cabside numberplates done for it. The crew are an Alan Gibson S Scale crew.

Excellent Andy !! Captures the look of "Little Tom" very well.
ReplyDeleteI have some Sharman wheels put aside to build one that I've had for about 20 years now !! Must get on with it.
