Product Description
This is an N-gauge / 2mm scale British Rail "Crab" ballast wagon, TOPS code ZCV. The model is designed to fit onto the 12'wb Dapol freight wagon chassis. You should be able to keep the metal weight which is in the chassis, and if the body needs securing in place you can either glue it down after cleaning and painting, or cut an oblong of 0.5mm thick plasticard or similar to slide into the grooves on the insides of the locating blocks which slot through the holes in the chassis. The model includes keys to fit into the tops of the chassis coupling pockets, to stop the couplings from coming out. You can fashion a vacuum cylinder to fit underneath the floor, or I can add this as a separate part to the model if you prefer, though as an extra part it will increase the price. I can put together multipacks of the bodies if you need them, and I will consider making minor variants such as those which retained the reinforced end doors when they were converted from "Lamprey". I have also uploaded a version to fit Peco Parkside chassis kit, and have another if anyone is interested which includes a 3D printed chassis having (cosmetic) roller bearing axleboxes and the distinctive buffer shank coverings (which unfortunately isn't possible with the Dapol chassis as-is). I may also have a go at the later pattern vacuum brake gear at some point. UPDATE I have made the fitting to the Dapol chassis easier as I had a file a bit off round those little blocks with the first one. Happy to offer for sale now.
