Hi,
My website is undergoing an over hall, so I'm unable to upload new products right now. I thought you may like to see my newest product before it goes on sale on my website ?
More pics here.

Hi,
Some more pics for you
I am having my open day tomorrow, so will take some better pics of the finished and painted wagons then. I only built and painted these two this evening, so no daylight left.

Hello,
Thank you for the fantastic response via here, PM's and Email
During this week I will be making a brick plinth with slab step to turn the box into a shed for line side use.
I also have a new set of arch bar bogies to offer and a new Well Wagon kit, pics below and more here

The well wagon is not yet in a rubber mould so I have had to roughly 'mock up' the masters for you to see how it will look.
Many thanks,
Rob.

All great stuff as usual Rob. I am not a big fan of plastic in this scale, however, they are very convincing so could be turned
Cheers,
Tom

Hi,
The RRP is £30 all in with couplings, steel wheels etc.
"Wiggley Tin Van", That's good
, do you mind if I call it that ?
Thanks,
Rob.

Not at all Rob, please feel free!
(I first heard the term "wriggley tin" when I was in the Army - seems that some of the guys couldn't get their tongues around "corrugated iron"
)

Very nice - they look good with minimal weathering. I can see Shane building a rake of DISGUSTING looking ones!
