    They both look very good. They also look very close coupled. Are they actually connected ?

    No just posed!!
    Peco W606, nice kit I have another coming for Father's Day & I have another BR JLTRT van ready to go but with a different type of brake gear for a little variety.
    I'm going to build a few more of the BR versions and JLTRT are going to add the LMS and GW versions as well .

    Hi Steve,

    I'll look forward to seeing them. I have some Parkside Dundas and some connoisseur models kits to do and some more on the way.

    I done my first kit build which was the Parkside Dundas fruit van and was quite pleased with it. Well, for my first attempt anyway.

    I should be doing some of the rest on return from my holidays. Looking forward to having another go.

    Cheers

    Toto

    The Peco kits are very good and the JLTRT kits are superb. I've built a few parkside, I find they require a little more work than others.

    Yes that's it, plus a bit of variety is always good
