ACC5 Update

Work is slow at the moment on Ashington No.5 as we await material which is now on order for the new axlebox brasses and the tyres are in the process of being booked to go away in September for turning. More news to follow soon but for now some minor updates below

As per previous updates the reverser lever has been completely stripped of its paint and is now in the process of having the majority of it polished up to give it a chrome-like finish, where the brass block sits and is connected to the trigger it will be painted black from there down
