Well its G scale so it does count I hope.

A thalf the price of the kit Ive got a GRS GWR railcar, as you can see it needs a bit of work!

The body is made up of two sides, two ends, floor and roof and I will split down to these sections ( its pretty much there already! :@ ) and re build and add some strength.

After all that ( and all glazing removed) it will go in to BR green. The skirting over the bogies tended to be removed and left off for access to the bofies, something I may do if I get a set of bogie castings. At the moment its more of a bent, rather than flying banana- their nick name!
 
Nice....
 
A lovely quirky machine, keep the pics of the rebuild coming :thumbup:
 
Thanks guys!

Well it has to get worse to get better....

I've started to split it down. Some interesting things fitted including a 12 volt battery inside a metal box for the lighting. This will be thrown as the batteries have had it.

Roof is on the bench and being painted as is one side thats having some holes filled.
 
So is that........ Wait for it.......

A banana split?

Boom tish I thank you , kindly leave the stage!
 
I've been waiting for a comment along that line.... and it had to be from you!:D

Mind you it started as a bent banana! ( The railbus not me!)
