Hi all not sure if I've put this in the right place .
Been busy respraying my stock
Over the last few months I haven't done much n gauge till now as I've only ever done 00
But now I'm well in to n gauge here are a few photo






Some of you might of seen some of these photos already on my layout page but I've just started on a arriva class 67 what is going to replace the 57s and a dvt .
Here is the real thing

I think it looks good in this livery I will post some more photos soon when it's done.
Thanks.

Very good repaints Dave.

Hi Dave;

The resprays look good....
I'll be interested to se how the DVT turns out too!!!

Later;
STU from EGDL

I've just drawn up the Arriva DVT for a future vinyl project - just waiting on the finished Arriva Mk3s to appear now!

Hi Adam
Yer I was gonna try and do some overlays for the mk3s but have decided to respray some dapol coaches up instead .
I've got a friend who works up in canton do you want some photos if I can get some when 1 gets painted .

When did that DVT repaint happen?? I don't recall seeing that mentioned anywhere. Presume this is one of the ex-Wessex & Shropshire units?

Nice job on the repaints. Just out of interest what are you using for the turquoise on the Arriva DVT? I'm currently doing a 57 for someone and yet to find a colour the correct shade for the centre colour.

Hi chris thanks for that
I baleave the dvt was virgin livery 82114 before .
the paint That will be used will be arriva blue and br blue that is pretty close that's what I have used on the class 57s in the past.
And home made transfers .

By the way I forgot to say the paint i use is from phoenix paints 

Looks great - I've not managed to see the real one in my recent trips through Canton, just lots of class 50's in ever more dubious liveries

Alan

do you work on the railway then Alan 

No.. just I sometimes travel through Cardiff on Sundays and that regularly gets you a trip through the back of Canton by train (avoiding the main line) with all the engineering work they've been doing. This week wasn't so good - it was a bus from Cardiff to Swansea !

The 50's are usually visible from the main line - the Load Haul one being particularly hideous
