Produced for us by Andy Vincent of Meon Valley Models, these are the best 4mm scale 3D-printed wagons that we have ever seen. They even have readable lettering on the axlebox covers!

The bodies have full interior detail on sides and floor and are designed to fit onto our etched brass sprung wagon underframes; axleboxes and buffers are included.

The first types available are for Gloucester Railway Carriage & Wagon opens, in either 15ft, 16ft or 16ft 6in body lengths with side or end doors, inside strapping and with either 4, 5, 6 or 7 planks.

Our latest EasiChas kit produces a sprung chassis in either EM or P4 gauge for the Hornby GWR 5101 and 61xx 2-6-2T. There are various levels of conversion with the builder choosing which, of any, additional detail required beyond the basic conversion which makes use of fold-up mainframes, keep plate, and ashpan with sprung bearings, and a separate etch for the rear frame. Replacement brake gear, pony truck, trailing truck and coupling rods are included.

RCH 1923 Morton braked 9ft wooden solebar sub-frame. It is designed to fit under Slaters, Cambrian and Parkside wagons and includes finely detailed single-sided brakes activated from both sides. Newly released are the RCH 1932 10ft Morton braked steel or wooden underframe wagons.

Other easy-to-assemble sprung sub-frames for the RCH 1907, RCH 1923 and Gloucester 9ft wheelbase Private Owner wagons are also available. All types incorporate springing as standard.
