LYNTON AND BARNSTAPLE GOODS ROLLING STOCK







 

  

L & B goods stock

Rolling stock is fitted with Greenwich couplers and are lettered and numbered by Peter Blackham of Blackham transfers So far, we have built 21 wagons, all from Nine Lines and Langley. Sadly, the bogies supplied with the kits just did not seem to work, so we have used Green Max N gauge bogies. These give excellent running qualities. I have painted the wagons in slightly differing shades of brown. To my mind this is more as it would have been, as paint faded more quickly in that era. There were also variations in colour whether paint was supplied from Eastleigh or one of the other Southern centres. We have mostly used weathering powders for aging the stock. The three tarpaulin bogie wagons include the tarpaulins, made in tissue paper.

We have ballasted the stock with lead shot where necessary. This has certainly increased reliability. We have also built a track cleaning wagon which seems quite effective. The photos above were taken before the lettering was also weathered.
