No, P7 is not an upstart to take precedence over S7.... and if it was, then we would need a Q7 just to keep WT in order.
P7 here is the GWR diagram reference for a ballast hopper wagon. There surely ought to be at least a couple down in Artillery Lane because the local GWR Superintendent has decided that as and when this segment does get built then the ballast is going to be the real McCoy.... a lovely pink granite rather than that 'orrible ash used by lesser railways down in the East End of the City. And if he gets his way then those wagons will arrive in style - behind one of the finest Consolidations ever built (actually, probably doing a bit of moonlighting as 2827 will be moving the regulation dozen or so "fulls" on our future GW&GC Jt line).
I have started construction of one of these models - who else has done one? Any comments? suggestions? dodges?
regards, Graham
