BR (ex LMS) rebuilt Royal Scot class no. 46156 The South Wales Borderer
BR (exLMS) rebuilt Royal Scot class no. 46156 The South Wales Borderer. Built from the “Just like The Real Thing” kit, with Slaters wheels, wiper pick-ups on the driving wheels of the loco and tender wheels, powering a Slaters GB40L gear and motor unit. This model was found, in a bit of an unfinished state, but reasonably well built, unpainted, only 90% complete, but without any damage, amongst a job-lot of other modelling parts and equipment. I would imagine that the unknown builder is now deceased.
Now, saved from an unknown fate and finished to my standards by myself, with painting and light weathering by Warren Haywood, she is looking proud and as pretty as a picture.
