Heres my latest , most modern completed model of the little Enviro 200 's currently operating on the FreeBee route around Sheffield. This one representing 44926 - YX11 HNY. Involved a full strip down and repaint inside and out , then the seemingly never ending job of making all the decals !!......   |

.....thanks for all the comments guys ! - nice to have a go at a model of something still around !!!! 2101 , the model is a CNML diecast (who have recently gone into liquidation) and was originally bought as this London liveried example below - only thing i didnt have to alter was the wing mirrors and interior handrails !!....  |

Looks excellent Transit, well done. Sad news to hear CNML have gone into liquidation. That, quite honestly is their own fault. They have for years concentrated on stagecoach standard types and these have regularly failed to sell then been offered as clearance models for 33% of the original very high price. The few models they produced for other operators mostly sold much better and rarely got remaindered. The current clearance list from one supplier lists 25 stagecoach models, 4 go-ahead, 2 first and one arriva. All except the stagecoach models are in limited quantities. This is not a dig at stagecoach as their models do sell, but there are limits. Most people will draw the line at 15 E400 variants! |

...cheers D ! - and welcome to the site ! Look forward to seeing many of your superb models on here shortly !? Damn, I didn't realise you'd done a FreeBee! I've just started doing one (a few years late...) and I already see what you mean about the transfers so it may get put om the back burner again! Also attempting a Rotherham one whilst at it! Cracking work though there! |
