Here’s a new British loco in 8mm:1ft scale. It is 50033 “Glorious” in memory
of the real engine of that name being shut up in Swindon (UK) STEAM museum,
fully serviceable but unable to run - what a shame! Still, you can go and
see it without finding that it’s attending another railway’s gala weekend!
The trucks are “Clay Hoods” used for transferring ball clay, seen often in
Cornwall (SW England) until newer wagons replaced them.

Very nice Mark! I remember having a HO model of that loco when I was a kid
(probably Hornby), you’ve captured the colouring and details really well. And
the logo is great - instantly recognisable!
