Network Rail point carrying wagons

[Robert Shrives]

Hi N bits landed: 

Dapol from DCC for £31 bogie spines and Point base from a friend in the know panels and box if tiddly bits sprayed yellow,black etc

Close up , prints slightly bowed but when point base glued on with rails should be ok , just have to cut most of web out of the base and chop into 4 sections for loading.

Afternoon of PW got to this stage, rams are glued on back but mounts need easing, so tomrrow for that.

Close up of crossing clamped on the trestle. While model is simplified it does look the part.

Well PW were out last night and luckily this morning I saw a working of the point wagons go past south of Templedean.  Thanks due to 66 Driver on Ebay for good comms as future kits will see spare rams provided- guess why I asked !!  Also     https://www.britishfinescale.com/ for quick supply of the point kit - great range in N and soon to be OO and EM point kits .

Droned this one!

Made up my OO gauge versions of the 3D printed ones off eBay, pleased with them, sight warping from the box but nothing major once the points had been glued to the holders and clamped in place while the glue set 

 

I know the wagons are the wrong colour as I’ve used GBRf FEA wagons but I’m not bothered personally
