2019 - Part 1

Every December I like to take a look back at all that we've achieved between us in the last year. (Mostly Himself, if we're being honest...)

In January of this year our 4th NGG16, 143, was on the test track still in brass.


There were more carriages on the workbench, with brass roofs being made for the second of the superbarn Observation Cars and another of the saloons.


Himself had also started assembling a Worsley Works bowsider 17, to give us a model in the current colours.


February

A few weeks later and the superbarn saloon was almost ready for varnishing.


We'd also begun putting together a Worsley Works NWNGR Gladstone Carriage as the first stage in a WHHR rake.


By this stage the Garratt was well through the painting process.


March

By the begining of the next month it was finished and taking a test run with sister 138




17 had also been varnished and is pictured on Ddaullt.


And we ended the first quarter of the year with Himself starting on the 5th Garratt, destined to be 130.
