Re: Dunitrong Locomotive Works
Thanks the coaches are kits made by Andel models.Originally four wheel but they would not go round our tight curves so we fitted them with bogies.The roofs i made out of thin brass sheet fitted with home made lamp tops.I don't have any other photos but will try and add some tomorrow.
