The last build was a kit of a Lynton & Barnstaple (L&B) bogey goods open, also the L&B had a couple of bogey flat cars, see bottom drawing in the diagram below.
Reference drawing from 'A Portrait of the Lynton & Barnstaple Railway' by Chris Leigh (p91).
I'm going to convert an LGB bogey flat car, shown below...
As I wanted the spacing of the 'uprights' as per the prototype; a bit of cutting and filing was done to the sides and the ends...
The side under frame gets a cosmetic surface of thin plasticard ..........
The 'uprights' now in their new positions.......
Added the holders for the uprights....
added suitable ends ....
bogie wheel sets added with suitable couplings and a visit to the paint shop, all done....
I'll add some transfers for the load in tons and tare weight later.
