There's one finishing touch to be added before we pack up Minffordd to take it it Porthamdog next month.Having recently become aware that during the 1960s the hulk of the Bagnall 0-4-0 Kidbrooke was hanging around the yard we had to do something to represent that.You can read more about it here.A 3D print of a very similar Bagnall tank should be arriving any time soon, and shall set to work distressing it appropriately.In the meantime, Himself has prepared a isolated length of weed-strewn track for it to rest on.This is not strictly prototypical because in reality Kidbrooke was placed on the long siding which runs in front of the Maenofferen sheds, but that's a useful bit of yard for shunting wagons around so we're going to reposition it slightly.The model in the picture is an old white metal body we somehow acquired - or were gifted - long ago and is sitting there to give an impression of how it's going to appear.
