Bagged Cement wagon kit chassis

[IrishModelRail]

Hi all, I am thinking of purchasing some Irish Freight Models bagged cement wagon kits but a chassis is not included in the kit. Can anyone recommend a place for me to buy a suitable chassis?

Go to the dapol web site , they sell chassis separately , there have three different lengths you just need to know which length you need, I have used the mid length one for cement bubbles previously.

 

Hope it helps

Paul, the dapol site sells only 9, 10, and 11' chassis on their own. The prestwin chassis has a 12' wheelbase, which is spot on for anything irish. Are they the same-ish price?

Thanks Paul, I will purchase the kits and then see which chassis is right.

So your saying I buy these wagon kits and use the chassis for the cement wagons? That's grand, Thanks.

Dapol actually more ready to run wagon underframes, namely 2x9', 10', 11' and 2x12'. In the case of the latter, one of these is for the grampus but they don't actually advertise the fact. However, as a grampus body will not fit on a normal 12' underframe, which I found to my cost, they will sell you the right one, you just have to be persistent.
