THORNABY STEELMEN by Bill Watson, on Flickr Hi Alex, All good with us thanks. That first black and white shot is spot on except I’ve 507/514 in metals on the Workington Blooms. Might yet add a pack from Rails to increase it to 15 as I can probably fit that in the new fiddle yard. ( better get on with that too lol) All the best Mark 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WILLIAM Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 One of the good things about these wagons is you don't have to have a long rake to be authentic. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Controller Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Replicating those bent stanchions should present a challenge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBE Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 (edited) On the contrary, the stanchions on our wagon are made of brass section which can be bent as required and can be fit into any one of the deck hole positions that the real ones can.

Many thanks John Good afternoon John, Production is well underway and progressing nicely. We are hoping that production will be completed within the next month or so. Once production has been completed we will then have a better idea of when the models will arrive in the UK. We will of course keep everyone updated with further progress. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
