The Diary of the Building of a Guard's Van


Guard's Van build or final coach / closed in wagon

 Back one page Next


Well the guard's's van is now a final coach / closed in wagon and is a free lance design ...

It will also double as a tool store etc ...

This shows bending the roof. Whether this will work is not know and it may well be that I end up cutting the ply into slats and then gluing them all in a the curved shape.
This is the uncompleted inside of the coach.

Here the van has both parts of the roof constructed with the part nearest to the camera just completed.

Now comes the decision time as to how to complete it !!!!

The whole unit can be changed round end for end so there should not be any trouble using the unit on either truck base.
