In readiness for a possible house move and construction of my 3rd garden railway, Ive started collecting a few O gauge wagons 😉 - dont worry, there will still be a OO gauge line as well.
Ive had a few of the wagons out for a bit of weathering. Here are the results.
The first, is a kit built, 6 wheel milk tanker. Bought off EBay (bargain for £20!!) I removed the private owner name and added some distressing and weathering.
This is a Skytrex 12t plywood van. It has been renumbered / new transfers and weathered. Since the photo was taken, Ive added some chalk scribblings - empty dates, destinations etc and replaced the missing vacuum brake pipes.
A Dapol 16t mineral wagon. Has been lightly weathered, as this style of body was added to underframes in the early 1970's, so it wont be completely rusted out by 1975/76. Ive weathered the interior too and added a bit of coal dust, as it may be run empty.
