I have been working on what us modellers in the UK call a Neverwazzar, it started life as a Neverwazza in the first place, the Athearn DD40 which never actually existed )SP did roster the earlier DD35 but those were Cabless B Units), but I like oddballs and ones offs so one is currently getting a makeover which is currently a work in progress to feature a new cab, SP light packages and a full repaint.

Also on my bench is my paint tester, an old Athearn Blue Box cab:

In the UK, correct model paints for specific railroad shades are all but unobtainable and postage restrictions on liquids especially paints (not to mention exorbitant postage costs) means getting them imported is pretty much out of the question so I have to rely on locally sourced mainstream ranges and test, test and test again...
