Site resdesign: New page  
This is a new page added as part of the site redesign, see homepage for details.
Whilst working on the redesign I will endeavour to avoid broken links and blank pages, however there will be a transition period during which the same information may be presented on more than one page.


This page is a gallery for all the 009 goods stock that I have built and am in the process of building, regardless of which layout they are designed to run on. As mentioned previously all stock is compatible as regards couplers so that, given a suitable radius, any wagon can be coupled with and run with any other.

As my 009 wagon fleet is very definately a work in progress the pictures and descriptions within this page may change frequently. Note that at times the description may be updated before the photographs, although I plan to update both text and pictures frequently.

The rolling stock is a mixture of different construction types, mostly falling into the groups of scratch built, kit built and modifications of ready-to-run standard gauge items in N and TT scales. However some stock does fall into more than one, for example modified 009 kits.

The images that have a red border indicate stock which has a complete chassis and has couplers fitted to both ends - i.e. wagons that can be operated on the layout - although many of these will still need further detailing/painting/lettering to complete.

I have listed some further wagons which I have plans to construct at the end of the page.

Other wagons I plan to build

As I enjoy building rolling stock more than layouts I am sure I will construct many more before my planned future layout is even started. Some of the wagon types that I already have definate plans to build are
     Cattle Wagons
          I will need several of these, and plan to build both open and covered versions. These may be from kits or scratch built.
  Tank Wagons
    I also plan to build several of these, 4 wheelers using N or TT scale tank bodies and also possibly some bogie versions.
  Other types of wagon
    Gas tank wagon. I plan on scratch building this using 2 or 3 horizontal tanks mounted on wooded beams on a flat wagon.
    Pickle wagon. None of these existed in England as far as I know (do get in touch if you know different) but they did exists on the American standard gauge, and this is narrow gauge freelancing after all! I plan to modify the basic design by reducing the number of tubs from four to two so that the wagon can be built on a four wheel chassis .
