My first non UK loco, a Fleischmann diesel shunter which set me back £7.50.
It was then repainted with cheap acrylic paint and a coat of clear Rustoleum.. This was a bit of a gamble, but I knew that another go in the oven cleaner would strip it off again.. It turned out fine, and after a minor service and wheel clean it was back in service..

It had been overprinted in a thick coat of blue, which took an age to remove using oven cleaner.Ken's workbench Bagnall meets hacksaw

It looks much more cheerful in that mid-green. How about a name? Since it's from Fleischmann it could be 'Sirloin', 'Cutlet' or 'Streaky'...
