SD Ore Car dimensions?

[trammayo]

I wonder if anybody would be kind enough to provide basic dimensions of the Backmann Side Dump Ore car (height from rail head, o/a width of body and wheel tread diameter)?

Pictures welcomed also - don't want to pay nearly £50 smackers or more to get one from UK to get dimensions!

Also, if anybody could point me in the right direction for drawings of similar cars that would be great too.

Sorry, photo courtesy of gscaleonline as I can't take a pic of one of mine, but I can give you some dimensions.

Length of body 130mm
Width of body 100mm
Length over knuckle couplers 190mm
Height from railhead 192mm
Wheel tread diameter 25mm

That enough?

Thanks Colin - that's just the job - every thing I needed to know. I'm just enquiring about getting one from UK but the seller wants to send it by carrier. I intend to build a few for my Lil Hauler bash.

Steven, I've got the measurements thankyou from Colin (above). Yes I intend to scratchbuild.
