I have some models of these wagons by ACME in H0 scale. I could take some measurements or try for some better pics if this will help.

Hi Richard are you running these with 00 stock. Been looking at these myself, how do they compare to a 00 van, much difference

Originally, I believe they were standard Freightliner FGA/FJB (the latter being the type with conventional drawgear at both ends). Latterly, the Tiphook KFA, as modelled by Hornby, were used.

Thanks for the info. Had an idea they were fga's

As you mention Bachmann, rather than Farish, I presume you're modelling in 00.

Heljan have done the Cargowaggon van in the past, so you should be able to find one. The bogie flat they do is similar to one that worked to Caberboard, near Inverness; the difference being that mesh sides were fitted behind the side stanchions. There are photos of a couple here:- https://paulbartlett.zenfolio.com/cargowaggonflat

Hornby and Dapol have both done the depressed-centre cement wagon in the past. These were often seen mixed with both the type of wagon done by Bachmann, and that which is coming from one of the smaller manufacturers.

The West Highland saw Freightliner flats on both reeled paper and aluminium slab traffic, as well as BMA and BMA types, available as kits from Cambrian.

Hi i dont soppose you or anyone on here knows what the container flats were for the reels of paper from corpach?
