Building Non Air Coal Hoppers in N Scale


Non Air NSW Coal Hoppers in N scale 


Several Peco NR119 chassis kits were purchased and some Evergreen 2060 styrene for the sides to follow on from an article in the June 2011 Australian Model Railway Magazine. The photos should be pretty self explanatory.

    1. All dimensions were in an issue of AMRM some years back and transferred with a pair of vernier callipers.
