You realise you've just posted a link to the video the OP has posted...?

With all due respect there are hundreds of videos and photos of the NMT (and everything else!) out there, why just post a link with no context or anything?

appreciate you may want to have a rivet counter accurate model, but for my mind the set from Dapol coupled with vinyls from @captainelectra has made an acceptable model even with my poor modelling skills.

I've said it before, but IMO the problem with the Electra Vinyls for the the NMT (specifically) is that because they're a light colour applied to the clear coach sides you get an extremely washed out appearance. It's less prevalent on darker vinyls, or if applied to something that's not clear; the yellow is particularly bad.

They're also a totally different shade to the Dapol power cars, not inherently unprototypical as the real thing has varied markedly between NR sunshine yellow and a much more orange warning panel type yellow (which is what the Dapol power cars are) but personally it really grated visually for me.

With respect, the link was invisible on my machine, hence the repost. Presumably some others had the same problem .

So why not say that? Then people know whether to click on it or not, rather than just posting a random link? No one had said "the video is blocked for me".
