Still plodding on with 57 now in her 126th year, another ceiling reaches the halfway stage, now for the laborious scraping with a razor blade.... Caboose 2516 continues to make slow progress too, hopefully work will quieten down soon so i can put more time in. And of course the 1954 Bristol double deck bus arrives soon too...the most expensive project i have ever paid for ....$1 !

It’s great to see these original details revealed. I appreciate your efforts.

Just thinking, if the surfaces were properly prepared, prior to repainting, these details would have been lost forever. Sometimes, it’s good when things were not done right.
