    Here are a few pic's of some 20FT Flat Wagons that i built using a Parkside Dundas 12FT underframe Kit, cost £2.00 each. All white plastic has been added by me. This kit makes wagons about the right length but i made mine a bit short but they are ok.

    Here is a pic of an old MK1 Brake that i kit bashed closing doors & windows, its a lot of work. I added B4 Bogies that i got from DC Kits. I think it looks fine.

    Hi Weshty, Yes it is Random Ashlar TX46. They look so real. My printer is not printing very well but if you print a lot at once then they will all be the same colour and shade. And you pay once and print as many as you like. I wonder do they do £20 notes:-bd

    Thanks for all the comments. The Buffers are Round sprung buffers from Bachmann, Cambrian Ride Control Bogies £2.85 per pair with 10.5mm wheels. The Wagon is all made with plastic and the stone wall is from Scalescenes printed paper. Here is another pic with my new Bell Containers.

    Here are some pic's of a 42ft Container Flat Wagon that i built from scratch. It's not exactly correct but it is near enought for me. The bogies are from Cambrian Models. It's the best running wagon i have. Now i can put my new Bell Containers on it.

    I got this kit from Dapol, it is very easy to put together. The Excavator is from Wiking 1:87 scale. It is a good fit & 00 scale might look a little large.

    That looks great so far, put some pic's up when it's painted. I was wondering how the kit looked, now i know. I might get a couple. What did you use for the roof & bogies?

    Hi the green i used on my G611 was Humbrol emerald No2 Gloss, a little bit light but that might suit you. Its lighter than the pic of the A Class above but not by much. hope that helps. You just have to try one & then lighten or darken to suit yourself.
