Title: Containers for Dapol FEAB Spine Wagons
Post by: longuy39 on December 19, 2019, 07:43:28 PM
Does anyone know where I can get suitable, plastic 1:148 20' and 40' shipping containers that Dapol FEAB Spine Wagons? 45' containers do not fit correctly, I have ordered some from China on ebay, but when they arrived they are too small, probably 1:160 size. Can anyone help me please.

Remove the 'spigots' from the bottom and apply with double sided tape. Then you can use what you want. 45' containers are more common on IKAs/FIAs as they've only got 45' of loading space.

Dapol do containers too, as do Farish (which will need modification) I could possibly part with some, I've got quite a few!

C Rail Intermodal also do ready to run 40' containers, 20' bulktainers and easily assembled kits.  Ready to run containers also available from Revolution.
