On30 18' Bogie Flat Car Kit (6 pack)

complete kit includes trucks & wheels

This is a revised product from the workshops of our 'Bulahdelah Alum & Timber Company'. We have taken a heavy die-cast pewter chassis, packed enough stripwood to plank the deck and included arch-bar trucks with wide tyred metal wheels and a pair of KD knuckle couplings for either end of two rakes of three cars. We offer a simple but effective link and pin arrangement for the intermediate couplings but you could replace these with KDs if you need to.

This package creates a very versatile bogie flat wagon for logging or mining applications. The prototype wagon is 18' 6" long x 6' 6" wide. Quality cast pewter, styrene & wood construction.

Photos show our flat car featuring a weathered 'steel' chassis and planked in real O scale 9 inch wide planks.

Note: Kit includes 16" handbrake wheel & shaft for six cars.
