Got this model from Island Modelworks as a kit. It came unpainted but highly detailed. Now It's R160B 8972 and it's on a (Q) run.

Very cool looking. One thing though, I don't think spray paint is the best way to paint models. Very cool, I have been thinking about getting an R44 shell that a model company is selling on ebay. They also have R16s and R27/30s and trolleys. Do you mind if I ask how much that little number runs for?

Yeah that's why the modeling hobby gets so expensive for yours truly...I work in HO scale and that is a lot of small parts and I don't have the precision skills to work with tiny parts (that's what she said :( ), and it's difficult to do the work with the kits myself. Plus I like my sets powered (have one motor car in the set), so that gets expensive quick...

I wish they sold powered HO sets of these at the Museum or even Toys 'R Us. I'd buy one.

 

Can you snap a picture of the rollsign decals? The description on the website (IIRC) showed the wrong font being used. I hope they fixed that before they shipped.
