Blog- Up the Line - 1918 - Getting out the big guns!


Recommended Posts

This is last of my 'specials' for nowand almost finished. Lurking under all that plastic section is the last of the 3D printed F Class wagons and is providing transportation for a very big gun indeed. The gun is a Duncans models kit which I got, ready built (lazy!), very reasonably from Ebay. I have not done much with it yet but have an appointment booked for a dose of weathering.

The book is Roy Link's wonderful WDLR Album - a real must have if you are interested in this area. The wagon itself runs very well, I was woried about it being a bit unstable and top heavy but all seems fine. Although pretty heavy, one of the little 20hp Simplexes is quite happy pushing it along. Am just waiting on the transfers now and then I can get on with that weathering which it is crying out for.
