Chivers 21t Mineral Wagons

The wagon featured here is built from the splendid Chivers Fineline ‘OO’ gauge kit of a BR Dia. 1/120 21t mineral wagon. I’ve built three of these wagons now and am about to order another half-dozen to complete a 1970s/early 1980s period train of coal empties, probably to be hauled by a scruffy blue ’37. You can obtain this kit - and the rest of the Chivers range - from DC Kits.

A full review of the kit is to feature in Model Rail early in the New Year.
