Wagon Roundup

Over the past 10 years or so I have picked up a few wagons, So I thought I would bring some out of storage boxes and have a look at what could be done to improve the appearance as my weathering skills I think have improved since I started. This blog is looking at how they are now, Then at a later time I can see if any need to be updated.

 A thing about brake vans

Queen Mary

I had a grey one of these but turned it into a mess van for the breakdown crane

I got this dance hall cheap so I thought I would mess it up a bit.

Two old kit build ones...

I do like these Bogie Bolsters

And these...

Must have some tankers.

This really does need some more weathering...Watch this space.

No plank, One plank, Three plank..

This is a Cambrian Shunters Truck Kit.

A pair of old Airfix Lownac's I picked up some years ago..Plastic wheels (yuck) as the small wheels are like rocking horse manure to get hold off.

Three fruit vans...I like a bit of fruit...

These venelated vans were accidental weathering but it turned  out different?

50ft parcel..I picked this up for £12 years ago, I shudder to think what it would cost today...

One time I had a thing about cattle trucks...

I think it got a bit out of hand?

Now a few Private Owner wagons, A little closer to home...I mad my own loads (real Yorkshire Coal 'Tha Naws')

A few empties.

Feel free to leave comments about my weathering, As the saying goes 'Every littlehelps'
