Hi

Can anyone advise where I can buy kits for these please?

Ideally a standard wagon POA / Railease from about 1980...  one in pale blue with yellow ends ..

I'm not familiar with all the variants.

I see there are some 3d printed ones as well now.  If anyone can suggest one that would be great.

I recall there was an Ian Stoate Kit but can't see where to buy them.  NGS shop doesn't have any.

Cheers

There are a few different types of scrap wagon on Shapeways.

You might find the old Ian Stoate Models kit (one piece resin body for Peco chassis) on eBay.

Chivesr do a kit for the later rebodied version

The other option is scratch building from plasticard an triangle/square plastic rod.

Several variants of the scrap bins

"A complete one piece body designed to fit on the Peco 15ft chassis kit. Requires the chassis and side ladders to complete."

thanks everyone!

I'll look out for the ian Stoate one on ebay as would prefer original poa in turquoise and yellow ends really.

whilst waiting I might have a go and making one of the black adder ones ...  it's a bit later than I want in terms of era but I can practice my painting and decal skills on it ...


cheers

This might be a bit too late to help you, but there is a way of producing an original SSA using the Chivers kit. What I did was to buy a spare kit and chop down the side pieces to create the correct ends. I've detailed the process on RMweb.
