Previously, I discussed the possibility of using Tri-ang TT stock.
Another example that can be used is the Southern Bogie Van.
Fairly accurate in side moulding, it is somwhat wide. The plank gaps are embosed rather than depressed-but- as a quick conversion it captures the prototype well.
There are various articles in Mixed Traffic to put right the width issues and I suppose it would convert into other types of van.
This one, and its sister Maroon example has been fitted with kitmaster bogies-No the purists cry! But it uses up unused parts and keeps the cost down- plus you cant tell when it's moving. At Weymouth today and tomorrow playing trains with 'Hennock'.
