NGF Wagon/Van 2025 - Ideas?!

[Tank]

Thanks for the input so far.

Sadly, the options in the poll are all that are available in number.

Please keep voting folks.  I want to get this started in the next couple of weeks, ideally.

And I agree Papyrus, it feels longer to me as well!

Being purely selfish I'd love something which wouldn't look out of place in Europe but I know that's not going to happen

Whatever is is I'll have one for the display case

Cheeky, I know, from someone who's barely been here 25 days, but how about making it something relatively low-key that won't look out-of-place if used in more prototypic sets?  Plenty of us are not exactly rolling in ££££ and need to make the most of rolling-stock purchases.   To that end, here's an idea of the sort of thing I mean - (you'll need to zoom-in a bit!)



I appreciate that (tongue-in-cheek) details will need adjusting - e.g. red-on-black is scarcely legible at any print size, never mind 1:148!

I like that, especially the '10ft - feels longer'

What about a Siphon G or H ?
I know they used to be available unpainted from Dapol.
They could be realistically liveried to appeal to modellers of non passenger rollingstock as well as goods vehicles.
I'm sure someone could come up with an authentic and believable scheme ...

In the perhaps unlikely event this is possible, I'm actually looking out for a couple I can use in an era 5-6 contex  t

As has already been pointed out, the only options available are at the top of the thread.

I really like the idea of a beer wagon !
It would let us have a wagon specific to the NGF (brewery) and easy to use with regular wagons.
No matter whether it is a Peco van or a Dapol GPV.

Welcome to this month's "ignore the OP wish-listing thread..." 

The Beer van idea sounds like a good idea to offer scope for something eye-catching and believable that would be usable on many layouts, but subtly reference the forum so that those in the know would instantly recognise.
Something like:

North Gate Finest
Ales & Spirits

The PECO Ventilated box van would be more appropriate for this than the steel bodied GPV.
