Well I saw this at Telford and held back ,but when White Ensign took £70.00 off and banged it out at £207 yip had to have it. My Bismark is gathering an after market mountain and with the Arizona almost done...........what the hell!. .  DSC09415 by macmcconnell, on Flickr. .  DSC09417 by macmcconnell, on Flickr Saturday night I put a few sub assemblies together to see how she looks. Paint shows a blue deck..........not for me ,but I now have pics with her on the way to New York for Navy Day 25TH October 1945 with a wooden deck................25th October just happens to be Balaclava day Charge Light Brigade and all that thought that was a nice link. Well its massive 1352 mm long and its a beast more to come. |

I took a few pics of the old girl when she was mothballed at Bremerton, Washington in the '70s. Not all that good for reference but I can post them if you wish. G |
