Re: Lego Wagon
Wouldn't a match truck suffice, with a swivelling coupling at one end to couple to the Tesco stock, and a fixed coupling at the other end to attach to your Lego stock?

That's a good idea - and my plan is that the Duplo wagon will serve that purpose for now, until I can visit with some acetone and replacement buffer beams!BorisSpencer wrote: ↑Tue Dec 29, 2020 9:35 am Wouldn't a match truck suffice, with a swivelling coupling at one end to couple to the Tesco stock, and a fixed coupling at the other end to attach to your Lego stock?

The epilogue: Duplo Wagon
I redesigned the coupling to swivel, now prints in 3 parts with the coupling itself, the pivot on a pin recessed into the buffer beam, held in place by a plate glued on below:
Here are the printed parts:
Assembled:
And here is the finished Duplo wagon, ready to be shipped off for (destruction) testing at the hands of the youngest one. Hope it will couple successfully to the Tesco stock!

Re: Lego Wagon
I don't think I every shared the files for this. I've now put them on Thingiverse.
