Prototype BR Van Drawings

[Dan Randall]

I've got eight drawings here, all about 36K size. I could PM them to you if Andy hasn't got the access now.

Hi Jim.

I only messaged Andy last night, so haven’t had a reply yet, but if he isn’t able to help, I’ll certainly come back to you on that - thank you.


Regards

Dan

Files sent.
I hope Jim and Dan can collaborate, and look forward to seeing a set of ends in 7mm and S very soon!

Andy,

Just to show you that your 16T mineral drawings produced an end result :-






Still requiring the support pips to be dealt with.

S Scale.

Jim, surely you need a copy of the Don Rowland BR wagons, the first half million book? I picked up a copy on a eBay for under a tenner, it has plenty of drawings in it and it a perfect refence on the subject.

There are no drawings in Rowland, only diagrams. All of which are now readily available on line via the Barrowmore site.

Looking at my numerous photos of BR van ends they vary considerably, Not just in the number of corrugations either side of the vents and bolting but the end - some are semi-circular on the ends, others quite elongated. I suspect the depth may vary as well. One can only presume the ends were pressed by specialist firms and bought in, but I may well be wrong.

Sorry Jim, only just saw your message!

Thanks for the offer, but Andy sent me the drawings, shortly after I sent him a PM.
