Chivers Finelines 6-wheel LMS Fish Van kit assembled as a BR Stores Van. I wasn’t keen on the dummy cut-off centre wheels that came with the kit so I removed the “pinpoints” from some 14mm dia. wheels and fitted them to a scratch-built (from plasticard) “caddy”. This allows the centre wheel to move transversely and the wagon happily negotiated 3rd radius curves. Cheers Darius

Canopy completed and weathered. The brass rod rainwater downpipes also act as dowels to mount the canopy to the baseboard. Cheers Darius

Refuelling point canopy under construction using Plastruct I section and 1mm/0.5mm plasticard sheet. Now waiting for channel section purlins and corrugated metal sheeting to arrive. Cheers Darius
