0 Gauge Slaters 6 Wheel Milk Tank.

You may remember that I bought this unloved 6 wheel tank for a song. I doubt if I would have an example unless this had come up.

The whole thing was dismantled and the paint stripped. After cleaning up it has been repainted and fresh Methfix Transfers applied from Slaters.

The ladders were broken/ detached so some brass ladders have been cut to length 

A challenge will be the fitting of Sprat and Winkle couplings with the air/vacuum pipe fittings and await fitting as does the drain cocks. The springs that have been supplied as the flexible pipes have been reinforced with 1.5 twin and earth copper wire to hold in place.
