This small wagon will form part of the PW train which will eventually be hauled by the new LAT loco which will form a future posting.
It is yet another Phil Sharples kit and goes together wonderfully.
 |
| The kit is nicely packed. |
 |
| The kit of parts ready for assembly to begin. |
 |
| With the main body assembled the bearings go in ready for the wheelsets to go in. |
 |
| With the wheels and top rails added the wagon is almost complete. |
 |
| The side panels finish it off nicely, |
This wonderful little kit got to this stage in a couple of hours and would have been quicker had I used a fast drying glue.
 |
| With its paint and coupling hooks on the wagon is complete and usable however I want to add a load and some weathering. |
 |
| The side plates are a bit flat so I added some plastic rivet heads for some relief. |
 |
| A nice parcel from SLR models included some useful tools. More of the other bits in a future post. |
 |
| The tools placed on the wagon look good and just need painting and a bit of rust |
 |
| With the tools painted and aged they have been fixed down to the wagon. I Decided to use the shovel instead of the rail bender. |
So that another wagon on the rails (I also added some lead weight to make it run better).
