Diesel progress

Pretty much finished the body work on the new diesel yesterday including making a control panel in the cab. This almost entirely blocks the right hand door to the cab but I can live with it.

It's time for me to spoil another model with paint now. Maroon or Green? Yellow?... Blue? Only time will tell. The other main line diesel owned by the IoSR is in maroon so I suppose that would make sense for this chap too.

Here are the two machines together to give an idea of size. The painted loco is the rather wonderful Lilliput 0-4-0.
