Nice, but still has the 'issue' previously-raised in response to some posts here:

 

Have I ever been against two at a time?

And stuff still happens there slowly

Just stuff getting done elsewhere too, it ain't all here or in the garage

Nice work on the grill thingies Bill. Nice motor too, reckon it'd look even better with a vac-formed canopy tho...

 

Oh by the way...

This one wouldn't need a vacform canopy - or vacform anything, come to that...

....as for the colour scheme - er, um, what colour scheme?

Any drawings?

Congrats on the new wheels Bill. Looks tidy. I've never driven an F, but I know they have a big following. Hope yours is as good as it looks. Not much room in there for new kits though? No plans to convert it in to a shooting brake before Telford?

You do realise that is actually a device for brushing soot out of GWR railway tunnels

 

The driver/operator stands behind the engine and operates the brakes, that's all

 

So please lose these wild fantasies of making the Hepton-Fraser Gallowbrush take to the skies

 

Tssk tssk what is this place coming to?

 

 

Mutter mutter mutter

I think it looks a perfectly sensible proposition myself.

Wicked Child! As it happens, if I can get some basic dimensions, I think I will be having a bash at this.
