The new wagons have been left in un weathered grey for the time being, but they look really good with the slate loads fitted.
Whilst working on the new wagons I have taken the opportunity to complete a half finished three ton wagon at the same time.
RAILS TO BLACK ROCK A blog about the construction of a 5.5mm scale model of a fictitious Ffestiniog Railway branch line to Black Rock Sands via Borth y gest. This was a railway that was proposed in real life but never built. Although a model railway, the model has an equal focus on the distinctive architecture of North Wales.The picture above gives an overall view of the area of the village being modelled.

All was going well at this point, the wagons were ready to be painted. However I must remember moving small, wheeled vehicles on a painting turn table, is not a good idea; two wagons jumped ship onto the floor. Fortunately the only things damaged were the couplings. After robbing another kit for a replacement, off they went to the garage to be sprayed. (I hope Malcolm can supply some replacements)
