0 BosKonay Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I think if everything was on the table, getting orders wont be too hard - tho 2.5k is a large order for a small market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 scahalane Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 If the cost and quality was good I'd take about 50 to start with, probably more over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Tarabuses Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I'll certainly take some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BosKonay Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Perhaps Arran would like to start a new, dedicated thread with the details, and we can gather comments and level of interest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Train model Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Hi all thank you for keeping this going I taught I might mention that I got a wagon for a present I don't know who made it but it is the same size as the c rail bell and it is on a dapol chassis so it looks like it is there all ready Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Noel Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Any update on RTR options for container flat wagons suitable for 20ft Bell containers? C-Rail 20' Bell http://www.c-rail-intermodal.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&path=25_28&product_id=190 Patrick's recent layout post showed how well 20ft Bells can look on SWB wagons. I have no interest in kits. Bell containers seem to be able to span multiple eras for Irish goods trains. Looking at some old youtube footage it didn't seem uncommon to see a goods train with a mix of vans, open wagons and Bells in the one formation. http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/1102-Patricks-Layout?p=102276&viewfull=1#post102276 Fab scene of 20ft wagons snaking into the station area looks so realistic.

0 leslie10646 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Does anyone know what chassis I can use for c. Rails 20ft bell wagons I think that this is what you're looking for? http://www.provincialwagons.com The Bell container isn't the DC kits / C Rails one, but an earlier MIR one. I assure you that it carries the later container just as well - I just didn't have one of mine to hand when I took the photo! Our kit is of the 27000 series, 1970-built skeleton flat. The earlier 1966 flat had a steel floor. If you want a rake, e-mail me and I'll "do you a price" - Her Majesty's postage on single kits to Euroland is criminal, but you can send several for much the same cost. Or, you can wait to the Blackrock exhibition in the Autumn, when postage won't be an issue and I'll price it accordingly for the exhibition. Leslie PS, I don't think anyone will have too much trouble with the kit - about a dozen parts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
