1:24 Heywood 2x4 Basic Car Frame w/ L&P Couplers

This model is a close approximation of the frame of the early Heywood 15" Gauge cars, known as the 2' x 4' car design. This frame is designed to be equipped with either Heavy or Light Axleboxes and Wheelsets. Both parts were apparently standard John Fowler & Co. products adapted by Heywood. This particular model is equipped with generic link & pin coupler pockets for commonality to many model railroads. To finish this model, purchase the following from our store, selecting options to suit your desired model:One (1) set of Axleboxes (Light or Heavy)One (1) set of Wheelsets (Light or Heavy)One (1) Platform Top Angle (add 1.5" x 6" scale lumber to form the deck)orOne (1) Removeble Top and Platform Top Angle (add 1.5" x 6" scale lumber to form the deck)(add .012" wire to form the lifting handles)
