A Complete observation
The observation carriage has finally been completed and it is one of my favourite pieces of rolling stock on the line. If i do say so myself.
The smaller Dundas carriages, to me, evoke the victorian heritage of many Welsh narrow gauge railways and I could not pass up the opportunity to add another of these fine examples to my collection.
I have once again painted it in the matching mock carmine and cream livery to go with the other smaller bogie coach that I have. The glazing was completed very quickly, owing to the small size of the carriage.
I have gone to town with the detail on this carriage there is a 'newlywed' couple in a loving embrace in the main observation compartment and there is a section of seating at the back for the guard and other staff to make use of. I plan to add a handbrake wheel to this section and a guard figure, when it arrives.

Here is a picture of the carriage running as part of a small passenger train hauled by '590'
