  1. Hi, Thanks.  The Innerleithen Co-op wagons were also NBR registered but ordered in Brown Bauxite so I will probably hold fire on this project if there is more definitive data out there, albeit currently out of reach. One other interesting thing about the Innerleithen wagons is the when empty plates which were return to Leven Colliery Fife. I am not sure what was special about the coal from the Kingdom which got them to haul it through most of the Midlothian coal field. The pits at Rosewell would have been visible from the train.

     

    Regards

  2. Hi, thanks. I guess if data isn't online or hasn't already  been researched quite a lot of projects will be slowing down at the moment.

     

    I should have gone for the Peebles Loop and the Innerleithen Society. They purchased their wagons from R.Y. Pickerings and there are a number of posts about on the Pickering order book. I have found less about Hurst-Nelson  private owner wagons other than those which have already been published by folk like Powsides.

  3. I would be grateful for any assistance regarding the colour scheme for the  Penicuik Co-Operative Association Ltd private owner stock.

     

    I have purchased a photograph from HMRS (link https://hmrs.org.uk/photographs/penicuik-co-op-10t-4-plank-no-3-op-r3l-registered-nbr-1901-no-12757-photo-no-s-461.html ) and would like to model this wagon.

     

    I am no good at working out colours from shades of grey and wondered if anyone knew what colours they were painted in.

     

    HMRS records say it is a Hurst-Nelson  4 plank No. 3 [OP] R3L Registered NBR 1901 No.12757.
