Binnie/Hudson Rugga chassis creations.

Post by Pendo Pilot » Wed Apr 07, 2010 11:31 pm

Lately I've become fond of these little kits for Rugga style chassis, seem to end up making all sorts of stuff with them. They look a bit daft behind an Edrig but seem ok behind my Jessie.

So I was wondering what other people have made with the chassis kits? Anyone want to show your creations here?

Mine are all for my lines P-Way dept.
As well as standard Rugga hoppers my P-Way lot get to mess about with this lot as well.

Oil wagon with point grease & flange lube (for greasepots!).

This is still WIP & will become a crew vehicle & brake vehicle.

A mechanical rail dropping wagon for short rail lengths (Well I think thats what was in my head when I did it :shock: ;) )

A tool wagon with workbench. Made out of Virgin Trains coffee stirrers. Normally have plastic ones so got well excited when there were boxes of wooden ones today... ;)

So what wierd &/or wonderful creations has anyone else made?

I haven't (yet!)... but those are superb!! Really lovely little wagons, you need something more suited to haul them next! Possibly...

Some nice wagons there, I've always thought about making some myself but never actually got round to it.

There all from back to bay 6, really handy as he's just down the road from me.

Not everythings listed on his website though.
Tommy Dodd may have an ARS key but I have a TASS button & a Rope Ladder, just like pirates, except the TASS button bit.

The Back 2 Bay 6 tools are really nice little bits, I've got a few of them on the workbench in my loco shed, here usually carries a good stock of them at shows as well
Some fantastic little wagons there Pendo Pilot :)

If one is feeling very "differnt" you can put a JAP super speedway racer engine in the petrol lister... shame those engines cost about the same as a restored lister loco!!


Very nice wagons PP
Passengers are reminded not to tease the engines

I have made mine into slate waggons. As I run on 45mm i found it hard to find any 45mm slate wagon kits, so I made my own and think they have a good charm to them.

Ill post a picture if i find a suitable one. by the way, love the waggons looks like a great little train. Oh and i need to get me some of them tools for my engine shed! good job its stoneleigh verrrrry soon :)
Thanks,

any idea where I can get a cement mixer from about a 16mm scale 1/19
There's a range of novelty pencil sharpeners in a kind of "antique bronze" finish - all manner of things from a washing mangle, cash register, American log burner style loco to a VW Beetle (I got one of them!)
They're all different scales and sizes, but the cement mixer is about right.

Scour the "tourist trap" shops or eBay - last time I looked a chap in the states was selling some!
