Hello all.
After reading an article about how to create a GBRf "50" in this month's edition of Model Rail, I thought that I would have a go.
After posting a thread about where to find a bodyshell for a Class 50, I was encouraged to create a thread to update those who may be interested on my Class 50 modernisation. Because very few people are doing something like this and making it available online, this may be of interest to quite a few.
At the moment, I have a Lima Class 50 which has been fitted with a DCC decoder from Hatton's. Having looked at photos of the GBRf "50"s, I have painted the front areas around the cab windows black.
Photos to follow soon.
