Yes that was me... I have the drawings for the pulp wagons and a friend built the chassis for me... They're a simple design that there aren't really that many of about in our scale...
Let me know if you want the drawings and how you get on!
Thanks for that. I've also got a set of drawings for the All Steel Wagons which is fine for my initial ideas for my Bowaters Stock. At the same time as drawing up the Wagons, I drew up one of the coaches (Coach 641 as running today) which has been cut out at the same time as the 2 test chassis.
When I ordered the first 2 Headstocks, I discovered I'd mucked the hieght up so I had to rapidly reorder a second pair with the correct hieght. Its safe to say this most likely won't be a cheap project based on the first coach and wagon combo.
Anyway, the first two chassis, coach body, couplings, 2 mucked up headstocks (2nd pair are due on Monday) and bogies have all arrived and been assembled. I'm very happy with how they've turned out and hopefully when funds allow, I'll be able to make some more......
The first completed chassis with the wrong size headstocks

Both Chassis together (One Wagon and One Coach)
Cheers,
