Lochty no more Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Some photographs of a 20 ton tar wagon at the Kingdom of Fife Railway Preservation Society`s Kirkland yard in Leven, The wagon, No202 built by Hurst Nelson of Motherwell in 1955 for William Briggs & sons Ltd Camperdown Refinery Dundee. The tar wagon was donated to the Fife Railway Preservation Society (now the KFRPS) in the late 70`s and was on the Lochty railway until it closed. The Briggs tar wagon is due for a repair/repaint later this year, I will post photo`s of the finished article when it`s done. as usual if anybody requires detailed photo`s of this wagon for a model PM me and I will be more than happy to oblige. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
giralnif73 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 I knew that this former Briggs tank wagon was preserved but until now was not aware by where it was located. I am hoping to build a couple of these wagons in 4mm scale but require two basic dimensions - tank diameter and tank length - plus a photograph of the equipment on the top of the tank. Hope you can help with this. Thanks 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmrspaul Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 The location of any conserved wagon is easily found on http://www.ws.rhrp.org.uk/ These are similar and give the diagram numbers, which should be able to give you the info you want, via the Barrowmore site. https://PaulBartlett.zenfolio.com/briggsdundee/e24eef510 https://PaulBartlett.zenfolio.com/briggsdundee/e31e22bb0 Paul 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
