Diego, I shouldn¹t have posted any pictures of the truck, it¹s ot!  It¹s a
Dapol kit I picked up at the Telford National last year. It¹s a ŒLowmac¹
wagon, Low loading Machinery wagon, introduced in the UK in 1953, one year
after me. The Dapol website was down when I looked a few minutes ago.
http://www.dapol.co.uk
I didn¹t fit the buffers or couplings.

The track on the base is plastic strip, with the sharp corners rounded off,
set into channels cut in the MDF base. I did try to scratch some parallel
lines into the base with a saw blade to represent the concrete but it
doesn¹t show.

The actual wagon in the picture  is flat with a half cylinder built up over
the wheels at each end
  like this       n___n
regards
Steve
