Private Owner Wagon

Click for a larger image

A new Private Owner Wagon is photographed just after leaving the EALR Wagon Works, prior to being lettered. The EALR was commissioned to supply wagons for a local gravel collection company, working out of Appledore and landing gravel on the local quay from where it will be transported by the EALR.

Another scratch built wagon, made from red cedar for the chassis and mahogany strip wood for the planking. Strapping etc made from Plasticard, as were the rivets. Wheels, axle boxes and buffers are from I.P. Engineering. This one is to be hand lettered with the Owners details. A nice bit of colour next to the grey livery of EALR wagons :-)
