It’s taken long enough but here’s Gordon! He’s made from a heavily modified Hornby Gay Crusader with a Bachmann group standard tender. Gordon is a character I’ve always fettled with as I was never satisfied with how he looked, but I can honestly say I’m happy with him.
@TomTeeLegend I wouldn’t have had a clue where to start with an etched chassis aha. The radial chassis is pretty good, I just need to do something to secure the motor as I had to cut away its bracket
@TomTeeLegend Just need to glue back on the front brake blocks and get some county class side rods. Until then I’ve got a pretty good exploit model lol
“Express coming through!” 💙💫
Pleased to reveal my latest Clearwater model, Gordon the Big Engine! Gordon was always my favorite as a kid, so I’m happy to finally give him a proper model. Full process below!
Happy 81st anniversary of the Railway Series. Unfortunately Edward and Henry are still unfinished. I’ve not had much free time recently as we have a new puppy but I will get them done eventually.
