Slaters Toplight carriages
I bought these carriage kits a few years ago and they have lain around needing that final push to see them finished. They probably need less than a weekends work to complete.
Remaining tasks are:
Glazing; complete transfers; build corridor connections; couplings;
I have the 3rd diagram C28 and Brake 3rd diagram D47 Both are 57ft carriages and are the Bars 1 series.
Relatively straight forward to build, although the compartment walls needed to be modified to fit inside (they were too big, when coming from the box). The instructions are comprehensive and run into several pages. On another thread there were comments about the bogies being replaced. although mine are the original Slaters ones. The kit is a mix of plastic and brass.
This range is now available from Cooper Craft.
The 3rd also seems to have a noticeable list, which needs attention!
