Brian's sundry wagons.

This is a GCR double bolster built from an ABS kit. (Currently unavailable.)

The 'GC' letters come from a sheet designed for 4mm, but are ideal for a 7mm bolster wagon. Other lettering from Old Time Workshop.

The wagon still needs chains adding, but I have another four to build so I think I might do them as a job lot when I am in the mood. Also needs number plates which I hope to order from Intentio once I have a decent batch. I have quite a few GC wagons to build.

This HR open was built from the Scottish Wagon Works kit. A very simple build that would not task a beginner.

This diag. 64 brake van is quite an old model. It was 'in works' to have the lamps repainted the correct red, which has now been done. It was built from a D&S etched kit which, as brake vans go, was quite straightforward to put together. I added a few minor sophistications, like planking on the inside of the balcony, and the lamps.

These were, perhaps, the most common type of GC brake. The CLC also employed similar vans. And the Burry Port and Gwyndreath Valley had some (albeit on iron frames, like some of the CLC versions, and contractor-built) which were virtual clones.
