WDLR .stl file on Thingiverse

[PhilH]

I don’t know if this has been on before but if you have, or know someone with, a 3d printer there are several free .stl files of WDLR wagons on Thingiverse. A,B,C,D & E type wagons are represented, just look for user Bblr.

Also on there is a Simplex 20hp loco along with a Crewe tractor. They are drawn in 19mm scale (I don’t know if that’s a thing not knowing much about narrow gauge stuff) but obviously easily converted to other scales in your slicer.

I will also post this in the narrow gauge section.

I wonder if 19 mm is a wargaming scale?

No, they're not.
From the description on Thingiverse;

"This is a Simplex 20hp Tractor in 16mm to the foot scale (1/19)"

 

They've been on Thingiverse for three years now. Excellent files that print well and Dave Watkins is to be applauded for making them available freely.

My ignorance about the weird and wonderful scales used by narrow gauge modellers would have probably been made clearer if you had gone on to quote my next sentence immediately after the sentence you quoted.
