A challenging build?

Post by andymctractor » Wed Jan 21, 2015 4:04 pm

Hi, there are some members of this forum that seem to relish building rolling stock from problem prototypes and the less conventional the better.
Whilst having a Welsh Quarry related play on the internet I came across these and just wondered if there are any members willing to admit they've tried to model one or some of them.

A 1:19 scale quarryman on one of these would make a brilliant conversation point. :shock:

We had a selection on the GC a couple of years ago. A couple new built to original designs by one of our S&T lads - excellent fun! :D
