Hi Colin. I've never gotten around to starting my similar project. I purchased a Citadel Seraphim Sepia paint as I've seen this product used before. Regards. Steve

[@bramelsheretan]

they are great, I'm certainly going to add the steps, really makes them stand out. As mentioned, ignore the light flicker, you'll see the same issue with footage of cars when filmed. Merry Christmas, Colin

Ps, it's not about jumping on the band wagon, we all have the same models and they get painted, weathered, modified etc when we feel the urge to do something. Keep those videos coming

Thanks for the lovely comment , the steps do make a big difference l am glad you liked the video as for the flashing lights l think they must go .All the best Colin.

Lovely coaches, you done a great job of them. I honestly think transforming older, cheaper stock is definitely worth while. Thank you also for the mention, much appreciated

[@Mossendrailway00]

Thanks for the lovely comments and l got a lot of good info and ldeas from looking at your video on the teak coaches and the steps made it for me so thank you . Have a good one all the best Colin.

Most interesting video Colin and well done. - they do look the part! 👍 _Lest you are interested Southeastern Finecast used to make flushglazing for these coaches (really simple to fit) and Keen made floating end plates (corridor connections)._

[@Mossendrailway00]

Hi Colin thanks for the info l well look into the end plates and the flush glazing ,hope all is well with you and l do like your short videos l can not leave comments on so l would tell you now have a good one . All the best Colin.

@@Mossendrailway00 Colin, thank you. 👍 The other area to look at is MJT cast roof ventilators - best fitted prior to glazing if you use cyanoacrylate glue. I've always changed wheels from plastic to metal so they don't attract the dirt. The Short videos (and Posts) should be open to comments although occassionally KZbin resets the comments 'on' to comments 'off' during uploading and it takes a friend to alert me. ATB - Colin 😺

That's very good. I have a fleet of these and some Thompson coaches and I've tried several methods I've seen to enhance the teak effect and I'll certainly give this method a go. Thanks for the video and a Happy Christmas to you.

[@Mossendrailway00]

Thanks for the lovely comments and l do hope you give it a go, have a good one John , all the best Colin.

@Mossendrailway00 I might have a go at putting passengers in one, at some point. I've never tried dismantling one before, but in the meantime, we'll be playing trains on the very christmassy Dylington. Merry Christmas to you and your family, and best wishes for the New Year... Cheers James 🎅 👍
