The furniture van wagon is now painted and in service. Slight weathering to bring out some of the detail. I do think that the masterclub bolt heads are better defined than a transfer rivet though from much more than a few inches away it is hard to see.

I added a pair of crossbeams pegged into the holes in the sides to which the van is lashed. The relatively new looking sheet may have had a few more ropes in practice, though that was fiddly enough.

A few posed pictures;

I’m still not absolutely sure about the sheet. It looks right to my eye although I accept that photographic evidence of these wagons in use on the CR is not available. Perhaps in time one will turn up.
