| 8-ton double-deck planked sheep van in LMS days. |
My recently completed portrait of 294528, was built from my own resin castings or "Aids to Wagon Building", it is based closely on the well known photo reproduced on page 169 of Peter Tatlow's "Highland Railway Carriages and Wagons". The van suits the early LMS grey livery, which accentuates the relief detail even though the ironwork is not picked out in black as it was in Highland days. Below you can see how much detail has been achieved using state of the art 3D printing for the masters and a high tech. resin casting process for production.
I still have a few sets of 7mm sides and ends left if you'd like to add a sheep van or two to your collection of HR stock. See my earlier post below for details of ordering.
The sheep van is also available as a 3D print in 4mm scale, see post below.
