Re: WEST ORTON
I wonder if anyone will get the reference between the name, number and a one-off.

Re: WEST ORTON
That covers the number, what about the name?

You wait all year for a pre-order then three arrive at once.

Going on holiday for a couple of weeks now but I will be dangerously close to TMC Models in Goathland, and I have a shopping list.

I ordered the 3D transfers for custom nameplates etc yesterday morning. Received a couple of emails to clarify my requirements and a further email today confirming they have been posted.Steve M wrote: ↑Thu Sep 18, 2025 3:18 pm0-6-0 Sentinel.Mountain Goat wrote: ↑Thu Sep 18, 2025 3:06 pm That looks nice. Is it an 08 chassis under there or something else?
It's a one-off oil fired shunter for a bit of fun. Nameplates and numbers commissioned from Railtech - no.42 'Sorcerer'.
Now that is a damn good service!

Hi Steve,
Just catching up, so good to hear that you have “got your finger out” so to speak, and nice new models especially the last one pictured at the sheds……will also be interested to see what the “Sorcerer” looks like when finished.
Cheers Richard

Re: WEST ORTON
Thanks Richard.
Yes, 'finger out' is the new normal since the op! Not perfect but at least I can attempt a small amount of painting again. It's been so long since I did a whole loco that I can't remember the right order in which to paint things.

Re: WEST ORTON
Isn't it to do with a Type 42 Dungeons and Dragons Sorcerer? or something like that?
