They look great Chris. Could do with a few of them in my quarry.

Did you know that Trenarren Models do slate loads that would probably fit your wagons?

 

[thecsmann]

[BarmyAndy]

What size wheels have you used and where did you get them from please?

 

[thecsmann]

the wheels and cupling blocks are from AnDel models 24mm a bit to big but as the rest is bigger it works.
