SM32, looking for ideas
Posted: Fri Feb 11, 2022 7:35 am
After the successful test run of the Lindale sam (shown here: https://gardenrails.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=13806), my daughter likes it (as the loco is red) and wants a few wagons to go with it.
As the loco has tinplate-suited wheels I thought about using old O-gauge chassis and just putting a proper body on top.
So I am looking for ideas.
I have some short four-wheeled chassis in the box.
One wagon should be a flat one, another could be a brake van.
Making the wagons as wide as the loco would look strange.
What do you think are the right dimensions (width, height)?
As my daughter will play with it I am not looking for an extremely detailed wagon.
However the whole train should look plausible.
