009 scale railcar

009 railcar In amongst all the tidy up is the railcar. It was built originally for Wood End in about 1999, but was used infrequently due to clearance problems - it would go through the bridge about one time in three and would clip the retaining walls. It featured in a couple of photos in 009 News, but other than that it's a little shy. The obvious root is the Meridian Models Ashover Light Railway coach kit which has bee shortened and altered and mounted on an N gauge GP18 chassis.

What does need doing is re-fixing the body to the Lifelike GP18 mech. A plastic clip and a number 8 wood screw should do it...
