i look forward to seeinng your next wagon. did you work from a scale drawings ?

Hi,

The floor cloth wagon is based on a photo I saw in a book on the LNER Wagons, Vol 3 by Peter Tatlow.

It gives some overall dimensions such as length and width but not height. By using one of the wheels as a guide, 3ft 1in, I roughly worked out the rest of the sizes. Not 100% accurate but when it's in a rake of wagons it looks ok. Although a six wheeler is goes around radius 1 curves no problem at all.

I'm always on the lookout for something different to model, so I may do some more NBR wagons.
