New Swift Sixteen Well Wagon.

[PaulRhB]

Test fitted together, needs some Accucraft couplings now.

Nearly done, just the tie down rings to go then some loads for Robs little competition there's part of one in the background but I've got to build some accessories for it too.
Taking it for more track testing tonight to see if the Accucraft couplings upset the running.

Seeing these great wagons I wondered if people might like to see this build that has just started on the 7/8ths Lounge using one of these excellent kits.

That looks great Paul!

The 7/8ths version is shaping up well too.

Evergreen plastic rod? Excellent idea but what is it and where did you get it from.

Lovely work.

It's available in most model shops in packs including a plastic rod and tube assortment. Costs around £5 for what looks like a small pack but it lasts me ages.

Here's the rolling test on R3 points. It ran without mishap lots of times at varying speeds.

Thanks for link, know what you mean now. The word evergreen made me think gardening.... Suppose strimmer line might be similar.

Suppose strimmer line might be similar.

That's probably not going to stick well as it's usually a very slippery plastic.
