Cambrian Models Dogfish Ballast Hopper

 Looking to add to the engineers' train, the next victim is the Ballast Hopper. Made by Cambrian Models, as it says in the picture, it needs 9mm wheels, micro rod or wire, paint, transfers and couplings to complete. Having all these in stock, it is a matter of getting started. Also helpful is the era and areas of use also provided.
As can be seen from the lower picture, the kit comes as a moulded hopper and two sprues of detailing parts for chassis and main body.
Cleanly moulded, it is a matter of identifying the parts, removing from the sprue, cleaning up and applying adhesive-MEK in this case.
As usual, Paul Furner has supplied an excellent set of instructions and exploded, numbered, views of the components. Several suggestions are made , such as which point to paint the hopper assembly, all helpful if a pigs ear is to be avoided.
I managed to pick up another sheet of original Woodhead Transfer at Westfest, so I should have plenty of options where numbering is concerned.
With various references to articles and books holding information on this piece of rolling stock- it should be easy to find a relative photo.
