In between construction of the stock and scenics for my 7mm layout I have also been messing about with a few odds and sods of Bachmann class 25 recently......

Ending up with this pair in typical workaday condition...



25 202 - tyhe fist Bachmann 25 I havent had to alter the roof panel arangement on (its correct as it comes for this one!)



Plus the one off non boilered 25/1 - 25032 - whjch has had modifed exhaust outlet and boiler room roof details....

Both weathering in acrylics....

All I have to do now is decide whether to keep them (for such time as I have a layout of the period to run them on) - in which case I will convert to EM and add end pipewirk and scale couplings.......... or sell on in favour of something I can use! Shocked

I missed this somehow, but lovely work. I've always had a soft spot for the 25's, especially in that mucky state...

It's looking very nice Neil.
The weathering is subtle and not overdone.
