For what appears to be such a basic and insubstantial carriage it's remarkable how much fiddly work is involved in scratch building a model of FR 'toast rack' carr 39.
Last night's task was to begin bending and fitting the distinctive hoops at the side of these Hudson carriages.
This involves forming sets of U shapes of three radii out of 0.45 brass wire and carefully fixing them in position.
Thank goodness for 60 second superglue!
One down, one to go.
