Boplate

[SimonT]

I am trying to find more information about what went on between the doors on the Boplates. The PDRMP kit is lacking in this respect. I have looked to see what Paul has and the only detail shots are of the outer ends, not the middle. Can anyone help with a detail photo of this area?
Cheers
Simon

Ian,
do you have any shots of the middle of the wagon? There must be (on the real wagon) an upright to which the two doors lock. I had nothing in my kit and would like to put something in!

Thanks for the help
Simon

Cambrian produce a 4mm kit, there may be something on them.

Paul,
the first photo is exactly what I am looking for - how did I miss it! Thank you.
