With thanks to @Past-Avenuefor inspiration of his bogie bulk cement wagons on his layout-I purchased some IRM bogies at the Wexford exhibition and put a set underneath bogie cement wagon 33001 as a trial Here we see the result-which will be rolled out to the rest of the fleet, As 33001 is at the rear of the train I decided to detail the buffer beam with a screw link coupling and red and yellow air brake pipes as on the prototype.
