GCR Coaches D.3K1 & D.6E3

[PenrithBeacon]

I have just bought the etched sides etc for these two coaches from Bill Bedford with a view to creating a 4mm version of the AO&GB push pull train of the 1950s. I already have a C13 locomotive. I'm now looking for additional info.

 

First, the GCR Soc has a pdf file file: http://www.gcrsociety.co.uk/GCRS Archive web - P.pdf but his doesn't make a cross reference to the diagram numbers, can anyone relate the two for me please?

 

Secondly, are bogies sides available for the two coaches in 4mm, I cannot find them in any catalogue.

there look like a fox bogie without steps

so our C532A LSWR, C481 LBSC OR C480 HR would work

Thank you Brian, but I'm not all sure that they are Fox bogies, they don't seem to be castings.

 

Although these aren't the same vehicles they are of the same generation
