I'm very impressed with what people can do with the very American in appearance G scale Bachmann coaches for example;
Peter Butler's observation coach
Andrew's Corris esque coach
I've also seen in the flesh a set of 3 modified Bachmann coaches recently, not only have their bodies been Anglicised but they are articulated. The bogies are mounted on the outer 2 coaches with the middle coach simply dropping in place. As far as I can remember the bodies had the ends cut off, ride hight lowered, new roofs made and were repainted. For some reason (just assume stupidity) I failed to take a picture of the rake!
Here are some photos showing the articulation set up used on them. Perhaps some sort of gates/ chains are needed between the coaches!
I'm tempted to get 3/4 cheap coaches and bash them into an Anglicised and articulated rake.
