Eventually the first eight of my china clay wagons are ready for the paint shop.
Eight, Ian Kirk, china clay wagons |
I might leave these wagons in the unfinished state for a while and start on another eight clay wagons. My reason... well I'm thinking it might be better to have sixteen wagons in the above state available for Tredethy's first outing in May next year. This would enable me to run two trains of eight, one set of eight empty and the other eight with tarpaulins. If I get chance to paint a few before May I will. Leaving the wagons in a part completed state might also make a conversation point, and at least they will be in a similar state to the layout... still under construction.
So which clay wagons to be next, Ratio, Parkside Dundas or more Ian Kirk... I'll keep you posted.
