Very useful shots of the baggage van and building process, especially the former as I'm thinking of converting a Playmobil coach into a baggage van. Thanks for showing them.

hi tony
I am home for a few hours so I thought I would find these photos for you .
hope you find these photos usefull I have put them in order so you can follow them ,you will have to sand down the cab to remove any detail so that the 80 card will adhere flush I find humbrol liquid poly welds the plastic together and gives you a strong bond between the cab and the 80 plastic card everthing else will be straight foreward for you . I find half round fine files come in handy for near the door .and you can file down to it
if you have any questions just send me a pm

wem treacle mine (C L R )
hi
wem treacle mine asked the CLR if they could used are rails once a month to deliver raw treacle to the nearby treacle processing works .we have agreed as long as they clear up any spillage . their first run today was successful and will carry on for the next few months .we will have to put in a spare transfer siding to allow for future delivery's, more wagons will be built for greater capacity ( senior management has given approval she good like that ) but it does mean that I will have to use something besides hartland chassis
hope you enjoy the photos a great afternoon playing trains
