The changing face of Rheanus-009.

 The changes for Rheanus appeared almost as soon as the model arrived.
Blue Model Trains via Shapeways was quick off the mark with a smokebox door, backhead and pump. A replacement chimney was also ordered but due to production difficulties could not be printed so this wasn't added to my order. Subsequently this has been redrawn and is now available.
I will see what Narrow Planet have at SWOONS this weekend.
Anyway, the smokebox door makes quite a difference as does the painting of the footplate-badly- a quick job as eventually both Rheanus and Skargoey will bothbe receiving new paint jobs.
