The 4mm Peco card wagon kits are being sold again but not the metal inside bases for them, for some reason. So is the wonderful wagon underframe, usable for 9 ft wood or 10ft wb steel u/f. Interesting technology there if they are using the sme flexible plastic. See http://www.peco-uk.com/prodtype.asp?strParents=3309,3322&CAT_ID=3325&numRecordPosition=1 and I found examples on sale at Kernow models.

I expect you'll get a lot of hopeful hits but i was not fooled. She was a 'groan' item to my spotter friends in Bristol along with Leander and the other Jubilee ones that coincidentally ended up being preserved. Well not really coincidence as I suppose they were all sent to Barry.

Update I just looked at the web site again and in fact the decals are available as transfers for £2.50 (4mm) or £1 (2mm). So the big range is useful.

Yes it is a shame, a generic wooden solebar 7 planker would be much more the ticket than the steel underframed example. Perhaps he could make a deal with a producer for such a one. I would be a willing purchaser of such examples.
