A slight diversion in the form of a complete foreigner to me – a Parkside SR Brake Van.<\/div>\n

It’s ultimately destined for the small ads but it has made a change which has resparked my interest.<\/div>\n

This is as far as I got in a couple of sessions over the weekend.<\/div>\n

I found an interior shot which showed a couple of small seats below the lookouts. There was also a separate box\/locker with a lid which I may or may not model. I say that because when the lid is one there isn’t much visible inside…. Although once the interior is painted a bit more may be seen.<\/div>\n

Some were made to slightly different diagram in that they had additional windows added adjacent to the doors in each end. many others had them fitted later in their lives. I found a couple of photos where they survived intact without so I decided to leave them as is.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It will be finished to represent a BR liveried example so I won’t be fitting the sand boxes although having said that I am very tempted to model this one<\/div>\n

Or this one as being something quite different. I am not sure what the time frame for it being fitted with the cylinders on the end platform though – I want to appeal to as wide an audience as possible.<\/div>\n
