3:05 - "I assume they're Vents or Valves" - they're wash out plugs. They are placed on the top, sides and under the firebox as well as on the backhead of the boiler and are removable so that the boilers can be drained and washed out to remove scale and impurities. However they can leak when under steam, and that's why the white scale builds up. Not all washout plugs had water scale running from them, so don't add it to them all. Take a look at archival photos and you'll see that not ever loco had these streaks along the firebox - a common thing that almost every modeller overlooks. :)

Hi. I must say I've never come across oils being used for weathering before. An interesting choice of medium. As for the finished item, an excellent job that's well done. Keep up the good work. I have now subscribed to your channel so you can thank Craig for that. Paul. 👌

speaking as an artist ,, white should be used in its raw form in only the tiniest amounts such as the brightest highlights etc as it is seldom found in reality

Yes indeed. Also with black. I usually mix other shades in with black (browns etc)

Some very good tips. I too use Mig oils and Humbrol weathering powders. Very rewarding to see good results from one's own efforts. Q1s were cheap to make, no frills, ugly and very, very badly kept. Have subscribed. Many thanks.

Hi. I've just been communicating with the NRM at York and a lady 'Search Engine Assistant' has informed me by email that the Q1's cab floor is made of wood. She has also attached 2 photos as proof which is very kind of her. I hope this clears up the mystery. Cheers, Paul. 👍

That’s great new. I’ll assume that the floor on mine has got so dirty that it’s impossible to tell 😂 But for future reference, I’ll paint them in wood tones before in weather them Thanks for the information 👍🏼

You said on an earlier episode that you were open to new ideas for projects. I thing all railway modellers have got cars and vehicles (usually oxford diecast), small as they, are how about doing a few to show us how you would approach them. Thanks

Yes sure. Good idea I think I’ve done a burned out Transit before but maybe it’s time for another for general weathering. Thank you

Thank you. The oils are normally sold in sets. They are great for fading paintwork too. I've done a few videos using that technique before

any oil paints will give you very simmilar results , you can play with what you want to thin them with liquin is fast drying but can brown over time but for our timescales away from oil painting it isn't that relevant as we are only talking years and not many decades

Hi. To add to my previous comment, I thought I'd point out that the Q1 was constructed using rustproof material. Therefore, no rusting should be used when weathering as the look would not be prototypical and just wouldn't look right. Never mind, back to the drawing board pal! 😄 Paul. 👍

The Q1 is one of the ugliest locomotives I have seen. I don't model 00 but H0, but I want a Q1 for my collection. This engine is so ugly that I like it.

Hi Juan. I agree regarding the ugliness of the Q1 but for me, that is where the beauty of the loco lies. I certainly wouldn't object to owning one. Paul. 👍
