That Baykal, is superb! It really looks like it's been doing some serious work!
I think you have done it with great delicacy and so can vary the amount for different locomotives/amounts of dirt. Well done on being brave enough to tackle such a good (and not exactly China cheap!!) model. I would be quite scared from doing it unless I had practised on every wagon in my haberdashery before tackling a locomotive. But then N scale is half the size so all weathering attempts looks twice as clumsy in it. What did you use, an airbrush or rub on a fine powder and spray with clear varnish?
Will you be weathering all your other locomotives? I suppose they will look too new next to this one at the roundhouse!
P.S. Any luck finding models of those TCDD hoppers?
