Who's brake lever guides do you use Adam?
Wagon looks great!
Thanks - I'm trying to find a source of etched brake lever guides that a) don't involve buying all other bits I may or may not use and b) aren't too fiddly to assemble!The one from the Rumney etch for 10' Morton braked wagons (B.114). Yes, I know this is 10' 6". The 9' wb minerals have these too. All sorts of useful bits on those. And thank you, it's scrubbed up quite well, despite PECO. If it ever dries out, I can paint all these soon and catch up with weathering and lettering.

True, however on the hierarchical table of fiddliness, some are fiddler than others (Ambis for example)!In my experience, etched brake lever guides are, by definition, fiddly to assemble.
I decided, years ago, that life is too short and I therefore use cast levers / guides.

Hobby Holidays have the 7mm instructions on their links page which should help with working out how to assemble them. Most are obvious once the logic is explained.I like fiddly etched bits too - or I do now I can actually solder them!
I can't even work out how to assemble the Ambis ones!
