DM30

[Simon Hargraves]

I've just ordered a Dundas DM30 modified WD bogie wagon kit for the challenge in May 009 News.

Any plans for it yet, or are you just going to wait and see how the muse takes you?

[Simon Hargraves]

I'll wait until it arrives and have a look through my stock of stuff. I want it to look pretty obviously like a conversion of the donor vehicle though it could end up being anything from a completely open "summer carriage" to a workmen's coach with a roof and hardly any windows!

[Stephen Rainsbury]

I had this idea of making it a dining car with a table down one side and a bench seat opposite, and a bloke with a kettle at one end, but not sure about that now. I will do the same as you and see what inspires me when it arrives.

Give you a few ideas...

Give you a few ideas...

Exactly that, although I was going for longitudinal bench seats. (And a portaloo toilet?)

[Simon Hargraves]

Love that bar car, thanks Blair! I have found some tramcar seats (the sort with the back that can be tipped so the passengers are facing the direction of travel) but I'm not too sure about them as they're a bit flimsy...right sort of size though!
I have removed the internal and external side door detail on my kit but that's it so far as I've been distracted by nice weather (been out all day playing radio and currently sitting outside doing the same as my Beloved and her son are out doing a driving lesson).
Back to work next week so I'll take it in with me as I doubt I'll have much in the way of distractions...
