Adding lots of fine detail | Great Western Smokey Joe | Episode 2

With the concept established, it's time to add detail to this basic Hornby Smokey Joe model. I'm cleaning up the bodywork, carving away some moulded detail on the metal running plate, replacing the tension lock couplings, and adding some fine details like handrails and lamp irons. Frontington and Backwoods is a OO gauge model railway layout, depicting a fictional GWR branch line terminus, set in the rolling South Devon countryside not too far from Kingsbridge, at some point probably in the late 1930s.
