Does anybody have a sketchup model of a front-carriage of a "Standard stock" train?
It doesn't have to be very high quality; if it's usable as static object its good ;)

No; Standard stock. This pre-dates even the '38 stock: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RDv4_BVEhs4/maxresdefault.jpg

Perhaps someone can make it?
Otherwise, I'll just keep the spot where it's supposed to be parked empty ;)

I have experience building interiors and modifying trains.... But the outside of a train from scratch... I'm not good at that. :roll:

Indeed those are not really good. But it's not standard stock, it's '38 stock. The Standard stock has a different front, a motor/electronics-room directly behind the driver, and a rather large first bogie.
The Standard Stock did also serve on the Isle of Wight, before the '38 stock took over.
