Hi,

Thanks for your comments.

Another piece of rolling stock is almost finished. This is a NBR Floor Cloth Wagon. Nairns of Kirkcaldy used a number of these wagons to transport their floor cloth (linolium as we know it today).

The chassis was built from two Peco 10ft steel solebar chassis's. The body was scratchbuilt from 20 thou plastic card and the decals were made for me by Robbies Rolling Stock.

Nairns had five of these wagons. Three were wooden solebars and two had steel solebars. Wheelbase was 16ft 10in. As I have half a chassis left I will make a second one.

Alex
