popeye Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) 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.

Weshty Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Lovely job, really looks the part and the cambrians look great. Nearly as good though is that limestone cut wall in the background. Where did you get that? Amazing looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

popeye Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share Posted September 18, 2012 (edited) 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.

ttc0169 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 (edited) Very very nice-an excellent representation of the first built 30001 series bogie wagons complete with the ride master type bogies and round buffers-a rake of those would look great behind any class of Irish loco-well done.

It really looks the business. Is that Random Ashlar Texture Sheet TX46? Edited September 19, 2012 by Weshty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really looks the business. Is that Random Ashlar Texture Sheet TX46? 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
