Two Parkside standard Dia. 1/108 with W irons attached can be seen at the back. Top left is an old Airfix kit Dia. 1/108 with a replacement floor fitted. On the left is a Cambrian Models LNER 16 ton mineral wagon. In the centre is a Parkside Dia. 1/109 riveted wagon. Scattered across the cutting mat is the next victim under the knife, a Parkside's slope sided wagon.
When the six bodies are completed I'll get back to the under-frames, hopefully plucking up courage to have a go at Exactoscale's chassis kit.

I find that the sides of these injection moulded wagons have a tendancy to warp inwards a bit.
ReplyDeleteYou may wish therefore to but a brace in the centre to counteract this?
I'd not heard of that before. Though I have heard comments about the difficulty in warping the sides of plastic wagons outwards to represent the warp on wooden wagons.
