    A master class in weathering, thanks for sharing.

    Blue was VERY BRIGHT to be fair, but once all done up, it'll do just dandy!

    Good show as always sir

    Always enjoy your videos Nigel. And reminiscing as others are saying. In my case there was always a line of these in platform 1 bay at Plymouth North Road. Probably the through the night newspaper train thinking about it

    Good evening Mr train man. WOW that transformation was amazing 🤩 They reminded me of my train spotting days when I visited Red bank sidings in Manchester seeing lots of GUVs and assorted parcel vans. Have a good train drive 👍🏻 Cheers Stevie

      Reminds me of my early railway career at Cambridge. Most of my work was hooking engines on to numerous trains of the these and BG's. Alright in the summer flipping freezing in the winter!!

    I can remember some GUV's coming into Tonbridge station (attached to the post office train) black as soot. They hardly ever got cleaned.

    very rare you saw a clean GUV i used to do overtime on saturday night loading sunday mornings newspapers into them on manchester victorias platform 11

      I worked with all the parcel vans in the late 80's at Cambridge. Mainstay of our work at the time!

    Can be frustrating getting it just so
    Great finish Nigel
    Nice to see the 31 spares 😎
    The class 31 was a fine servant

    Another Great Video! I had seen the Ammo paint set and wondered what it was like. Thanks 👍

    Fantastic weathering! The model railway world doesnt usually seem to use pin washing and the drybrushing products and techniques you've demonstrated here, panel lines, grills, small details, door and window frames are really brought to life with a simple pin wash

    • @Wallsrail
      @Wallsrail  Před 11 měsíci

      I learned almost all I know from the military modellers planes and tanks. And believe the skill set is the same and transferable to railway modelling.
      Also helps to be brave and get your hands dirty and have a go at it!!

    Interesting and very informative something I will note for future use. Great to see how you went about the repaint. The carriages looked awesome..

  • @lukeslocos6610

    I know this exact dilemma, when you like network south east in n gauge you are pretty stuffed for coaches. Unfortunately I lack an airbrush and the skills to repaint, I'm having a go at creating a class 13 in n gauge so the green slave and blue master won't work, so a bit of blue paint will be needed. Keep at the good work 😃

  • @JamesCleevely
    @JamesCleevely Před 11 měsíci +2

    Excellent work, and very timely for me as I have a badly modified one that needs restoration and this has given me the inspiration to do it. It only cost me a fiver at a toy and train fair, so no huge loss if it goes wrong!

    A really useful for a returning modeller. Thanks for educating me on GUVs as I see so many in the way you described. Inspiring !

    Surprised that Mig's BR blue is so wildly inaccurate. Looks great once you've weathered it, though!

  • @heaptoncollierymodelrailwa6011

    Great stuff dude!
    Would love a video on the alcohol as I use it to strip my models- but don’t really get the science as to why it works!
    Keep it up!

    • @Wallsrail
      @Wallsrail  Před 11 měsíci +1

      If I do one on stripping, don't expect the science behind it, as I've not got a clue!! 🤷‍♂
      It works that's all I know 😂👍

    Great stuff - what PSI did you spray at? I’m tempted to try these paints myself.

    • @Wallsrail
      @Wallsrail  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Good question!
      I’m not really sure, whatever makes it work best.
      Somewhere around 20 - 25 psi
      And I have a cheap airbrush nothing fancy

  • @jagc1969

    Just an irrelevant nitpick, but there's no such thing as "99% proof". When alcohol is measured as a percentage, it's the percentage of the volume of the liquid that's alcohol. "Proof" is an older system that's not measured as a percentage, and doesn't denote a percentage -- it's just a number. Various inconsistent systems for determining proof have been used in different places and at different times. In the UK, proof was originally determined by 100 proof being enough alcohol for the liquid to burn; later it was determined by the density of the liquid. Alcohol proof hasn't been a thing since the 1980s.

    Give over, unhealthy obsession of Lima ???? They are cockroaches of the model railway world !!!!! They'll survive the apocalypse and still keep going !!!!!
