Thanks again all. Your praise is very generous.
I don’t think any modifications will be needed...it will be a very static model, so no need to amend anything to fit a certain track gauge. Will just need to disguise the two slight variations. I think the smaller wagon must have been Sabre’s ‘prototype’ which they then perfected. It’s certainly not the same quality of model. There is a third wagon also, two axle, that looks to be a similar standard to the 6 axle wagon.
Anyway, nearly there with the bigger truck...had some pigment treatment. I went quite heavy, but think ‘side B’ will be the preferred side for display. I think probably almost done. Some oil spills on the decking, the shine is just the fixing agent at the moment. Hopefully they look convincing.

Sorry for the delay in progress, but the second smaller wagon is now complete and it’s load well under way. I still don’t know what to put on the 6 Axle...I have a Sturmtiger, but think that would be better suited elsewhere.

That is looking fantastic Jack.
Thank you Paul, Cheers Peter. Could do with finding some space now for a diorama.

That my friend is good.
