A May..... thing?

Post by Peter Butler » Fri May 16, 2014 10:22 pm

To continue my monthly build programme I offer you my May 'thing' which forms part of my Farmers Market Train.  Emett style!
Various carriages have stalls of fresh produce for sale whilst moving along the line. There are fresh fruit and vegetables, fresh flowers, and now, fresh eggs.  They don't get much fresher than this:

Image
 Yes it's a chicken in a cage mounted on a flat wagon,
Image
Behind the chicken (ex kitchen timer) is an egg box to catch the new laid eggs,

Image
 And you will notice the power supply because........ wait for it....... it's a battery hen!!!

Image
 The chassis is made in the same maner as other stock which form the train and although it looks improbable, it, along with others,  has done a few circuits on my railway without fault and is as steady as any four wheel chassis.

Image
The list of others is potentially endless, the storage space is not.
