Detailing

This section I have divided up into three sections to cover weathering, buffer beam details and lighting. My locomotive fleet is not super detailed as I am no expert, I do however like my detailing to be consistent. All my locomotives are weathered to some degree using a airbrush, have etched nameplates fitted where applicable, tension lock couplings removed and replaced with screw couplings and full buffer beam pipe work fitted along with snowploughs where necessary. As my locomotive fleet is DCC operated all locos except the 08/09 shunter fleet have working marker/head/tail lights fitted.
