I stumbled upon these and wondered if they'd be of any use to the people here

I just tend to call them kit bashing fodder. They might have various useful bits for a cheap enough price even if they have no working chassis.

It returns...

I've thought about just using the underframe of the crane as a maintenance wagon. Filling the well wagon like dip with sleepers

Looking at the long chassis it might be possible to use it like the vans the Middleton railway turned into carriages.

I thought about turning them into fish or perishable vans. Maybe gluing two of them together into a bogie van and seeing if that would improve the over all aesthetics. Just might little ideas on what to do with them

I kinda love it to be honest. its a quirky little thing

Sounds like i might have to try out some of your techniques on some Triang wagons i have been gifted.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/265907664848 this is something that exists

the cheapest I've seen them has been on the Rails of Sheffield website

I've repainted a few as North Eastern refrigerated vans since the NER did buy the H&B in 1921. They are a what if creation.

I think railway mania are planning a Kit of the 0-6-2s using the chassis off the Bachmann midland 1F

The Bachmann J72 and G5s would also be suitable.

My plans for the Triang gondola wagons.
