I've been sent some nice pictures of WHR diesel shunter number 9 which was finished off during the week.
It looks pretty good to me considering where we started with a set of prototype nickel silver etches from RT Models, and we've added a lot of extra details such as the castings I made for the doors along the side of the bonnet, the protective bars in front of the grill and the exhaust and lights.
I've written in previous blog posts that this model is undersized because the design was based on the majority of these Baguley Drewry locos, whereas this one which worked in Australia and was retired to North Wales is longer and wider.
However, I hope all the extra details and the colourful livery will distract the eye.
