RMweb Gold sjp23480 Posted January 3, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 3, 2023 Hello everyone, I have some spare Cooper Craft BR coach bogies and I was thinking I might use thm as wagon loads. Were coach bogies moved this way and what wagons might be used to move them? Thanks in advance. Steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium JDW Posted January 3, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 3, 2023 I'm sure I've seen pictures of something like that in pictures somewhere, on a flat or well wagon. The top of them won't look much like the top of a real bogie though, and it'll be very much on show if you're loading them on a wagon. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember seeing bogies being carried on Lowfits and Plate wagons at Alsager in the late 1970s/ early 1980s, as part of a daily Derby- Crewe inter-works train, which also included Rectanks with loco bogies, and bogie well wagons with loco prime-movers. Most were partially sheeted, at least. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks @JDW I hadn't thought of that, sheeting might be the answer. Thinks.....! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
