Title: Wagon Kit Identification - Help Needed!
Post by: Dalteth on April 29, 2021, 07:24:36 PM
I picked up some wagon kits as per the below photo from eBay, and could do with some help identifying. I got more than just these, but only photographed these ones for reference.

I 'think' they are NGS kits for a 21t hopper and HJO/HJV but having never bought either I'm not 100%.

As a follow up question, what (if any) parts am I missing?

The lack of chassis' is an obvious problem, so what chassis would be suitable for each of these?

Any help appreciated!

The two on the right are definitely the NGS 21t Hopper Wagon which fits a Parkside Dundalk PN03 12' Wagon Chassis

Hi

One on the left is NGS kit 1 for HJO/HJV and requires a Peco 10ft wagon chassis.

Cheers

Thanks gents.

Anyone know if the dapol 21t mineral wagon chassis would work for the mineral wagon...?

(Sounds stupid I know but depends if they are scaled exactly the same!)

They unbraked versions are basically identical except for the door stop straps on the mineral wagons and the door release handles on the hopper - check out Paul Bartlett's website for pictures of almost all BR wagon types.

The NGS do a detailing kit for the 21T Hopper - steps, brake handles and rails - well worth having.

Hi

It's no longer listed separately as the 21t hopper kit comes with it. An email to the shop might get you a price for it on its own.
