The progress of a C56 I bought over the last few weeks. It's tender shell came badly burned but structurally sound. After checking the locomotive for shorts (finding none) i cut out the most damaged sections, the side walls of the coal bunker, and scraped out any further melted plastic. Then, with a sheet of scrap styrene I bought cheap, cut two new pieces to size before gluing then painting them. I intend to leave the visible seams as hiding them would make redoing this repair very difficult, and i feel i could have done better with more skill in future. In the meantime, she looks so much better.

I named her Kirisame after the touhou protagonist Marisa Kirisame.
