009 mass wagon building- so many kits, so little time!


 At last continuing on with stock for the GVT, there has been mass production (well Five) of suitable wagons.

All have been suitably branded and will have crushed granite loads.

I have tried to keep the weights roughly equal to ensure reliable running. Other than the two end wagons each will have an uncoupling loop on one end only. 

Moving in rakes with reliable attachment to each other removes the possibility of runaways!



 

 

Removable loads have been created with plastic card on square risers which are covered in crushed granite- this from Attwood Agregates who do a selection of grades for different scales.



The completed rake- I may relent and number them all in the style of existing wagons.
