GWR Castle Class No. 4079 Pendennis Castle8th February 2024
The print of GWR Castle Class No. 4079 Pendennis Castle in the condition it took part in trials on the LNER, against their larger pacifics, in 1925 is now available to purchase.
The Great Western Society (Didcot Railway Centre) asked if they could sell the print at the special event when No. 4079 Pendennis Castle was returned to traffic to which I readily agreed and produced it for them. Because of this the initial 40 signed and numbered prints have already been sold and I am now releasing the remaining prints for sale. This means that this print won’t have the usual period when advance orders are taken and then having a draw for print number one.
This short run 16" x 8" Limited Edition Print is restricted to just 100 copies, so 60 are available. This size will fit a readily available frame.

The print also includes all the Battle of Britain nameplates plus illustrations of Flying Officer Peter Malam Brothers' Hurricane (32 Squadron) and Sergeant Ronald Fairfax Hamlyn's Spitfire (610 Squadron), both of which used Hawkinge airfield during the Battle of Britain.
A copy of the print was presented to the Kent Battle of Britain Museum Trust at Hawkinge in conjunction with Southern Locomotives Limited presenting the Trust with a full size replica of the nameplate carried by No. 34069 Hawkinge. This was cast from a pattern which was made using artwork produced by myself.

Hands-on with the real thing!21st December 2022
Recently I’ve been getting my hands dirty working on full-size main line locomotives, these being No. 34010 Sidmouth and No. 35025 Brocklebank Line. Both locomotives are owned by Southern Locomotives Limited and are at their Sellindge, Kent, base. I have produced illustrations of both these locomotives which, at present, are for Southern Locomotives exclusive use.
The picture shows myself between Brocklebank Lines frames helping to remove the horn cheeks, with Roy Carlo (left) and Martin Stables (right), both SLL Directors – the picture was taken by Simon Troy, SLL Chairman.
