With patience and luck you can pick up the earlier ones fairly cheaply on ebay. Here is one I did from the last release - I used old Airfix underframes, end and roofs to backdate it from its BR Mk1 compromises. It is still a botch up and I haven't yet got round to replacing the BR bogies though ...

Thanks. Haven't done much on it lately, or any modelling really, but here are a couple of Rapido's pre grouping vans I got layout ready recently - a pair each of their LNWR and CR offerings.

Sales day at the mart.

View over the shed and yard.

HR 0-6-0 with extra tender fittings for snowplough duties on shed.

Shunting in the yard.

Latest arrival to Helmsdale shed - the Rapido Big Goods as perhaps preserved and resting between duties.

Thanks - couple more from last year.

A phone shot from 2023 I came across when looking for something else. It hadn't been edited so I don't think I've posted it up before. A HR 0-6-0 at Helmsdale shed adapted for snowplough duties. The gas tank for the restaurant car can be glimpsed at the right.

Haven't done much photography this year so far beyond recording work on loco updates, but here are three or four from a few months ago.
