IP WHRly 4 wheel carriage

Post by Dr. Bond of the DVLR » Fri Jul 09, 2010 2:05 pm

IP have been keeping this one quiet,
not on the website yet but I found it in the WHRly (p) shop and was so suprised I bought one!

Pics of the kit and its construction (and modification) will follow in due cource! It is all LASER cut and looks like it will be a really nice build. Just perfect for the small ish sized rolling stock that I have.

It cost £35.95 it has no dims on the instructions. The WHRly (p) shop doesn't hold any other IP kits ta the moment but soon will as IP are expanding their WHRly range even going to do models of the deisil locos and rumurs of Gelert....
Now That WOULD be exciting!

I honestly couldn't tell you as I haven't the foggiest what each of those is!
All I can say is that it is a good replica of the small 4 wheel carriage on the railway today (green, has WHRly written on the side)

Right
Thursday passed and I cut out some letters and new roof joists to make my removable roof for it.
I had started to construct the carriage when I realised I had two of the same wood frets and so had two of the same sides. The sides need to be opposite so that the doors are at the same end.

New lettering (I'll fill in the lines first)
Image
Two of the same sides!
So do I wait until IP are off their annual leave (already tried to phone them) and then get the parts and then build the carriage or do I do my usual and build it with doors at opposite ends of the carriage and just claim it was a DVLR carriage. (I mainly bought it as I like its size and over all appearance and large windows. Also to help out the railway)
