Pete has built a Highland Railway swivel cradle wagon, the sides, ends and the cradle are resin castings which are available to other model makers as aids to scratch building, these are the difficult parts. The stanchions and w-iron/springs/axle box casting were made in Pete's workshop, cast in white metal, from his own master patterns. All other components were either sourced from the trade of simply fabricated from sheet nickel silver or wire.

I've just finished an LN LNWR Precursor Tank for a client. The last stage was building the Joy indirect valve gear or at least as much of it as can be seen between the frames below the boiler. There is however no crank axle as this is not working valve gear. Built from a set of Laurie Griffin castings.
