Okay, I think this is it for now. I'm somewhat reluctant to try making my own transfers, as I don't think any home printer has the resolution required to create a British Railways Roundel detailed enough to look like anything other than a 'blob' when reduced to a minisculte 5mm wide! I will see if I can order a sheet of waterslides from somewhere.
Anyway, here we are. It's a very simple model with minimum detailing, but I think it will look good flying through the flowerbeds in the Garden come summer. What do you think? Anything else I ought to have done?
The only improvement I would make now is to try and get another stretch annie / clarabel carriage from the smoking Thomas set, to turn this into a four-car train, which I think would look better. Haven't seen any on ebay yet, though.
