way too much to do at work. had no energy left to work on my trains last week. bummer.
yesterday i spent some time in the garden cutting back the trees and bushes. damned. didn't remember it as such hard work. was quite done afterwards. getting old definitely has disadvantages !
last week i received some f40ph hep ends from shapeways. some cutting and sanding on some kato shells then i glued the parts into place. today the three engines received a coat of bc rail silver and , after some masking, a black nose and roof. will now let them dry for a day or two before i will apply the decals. two units will receive the 40years scheme while one receives the "love the way" scheme. or the other way round . not 100% sure yet. i might renumber one of the units i painted years ago to free up a roadnumber . after that i will be able to do two 40 years and two "love the way" units. might be the way to go.
