The Painted 32s are coming

We have had notice from the factory that the first decoration samples are on their way. This will take a couple of days, but here's a taster, in the form of a photo taken by the factory.
Yes, we know the buffers aren't painted; that's why we go through this process!
Enjoy...

  1. Hi Lindsay,

    The 32 is looking very nice. Any chance that the metal tyres could be chemically blackened or painted to avoid the shiny tyre sides?

    Cheers,

  2. Hi Martin. The decoration specs are that the tyres be blackened, and it will be done on the production locos.
