Here’s something that’s a little different. I found the kit on Ebay and it just screamed out for a conversion!

The railcar was built from an AMT kit and the photos show what I’ve done to it.

The kit was build as standard from the body work up while I built a simple chassis from H section Plastruct. I hung a ratio bogie on the front and a tenshodo SPUD on the back.\r\nI also found it necessary to fill the engine space with a weight to help it stay on the track, so this means I have a very nicely detailed Ford four cylinder T engine for another project!

The figures were found in a dolls house shop but apart from a “Made in China” sticker on them, there is no way of knowing the maker.
