    Steve what do you find the best and works well bonding polystyrene pieces together before overlaying with plaster on scenic dioramas?

    I use cheap no nails from the £ shop to bond the polystyrene together.
    A couple of good coats of a quality PVA to seal it.

    Finally put the last overhead warning transfers on the mogul.
    One front and back on the red bar. The bars where added around 1961 signifying the max height an engine man should go whilst operating under the wires and also to stop fire irons and such from making contact with the wires.
    Many preserved locos have this bar still in place now.

    Thanks Steve, I should have thought of that. :hammer: The CT1 was a bit of left overs from the house refurb so I used that... it did the same job.

    70019 Lightning arrives on shed for servicing after working a service up from Plymouth. Kelham Hall went off shed about 20 mins ago to take the train on to Swansea.
