35T Class B Tank Wagon - MMP/Dave Parkins Kit

Published on March 6, 2026 at 12:44 AM

Using the Hobby Holidays working leaf springs.

The top of the chassis complete

Using a cigarette paper to solder the pivot so that it still moves. 

It all works marvelously well. 

All the gubbins underneath. Really good stuff.

Ready for paint. 

This is a wagon I'd had on my list for a long time. You used to get a discount on a pack of six, so I designed the appropriate siding for them. The the deal ended. It was when I went to order another one I discovered the sad news about Mr. Parkins. I replaced the buffers again, and as for livery - well, ideally I want to make it late BR departmental but as nothing seems available transfer wise I might have to go down the classic Arifix kit route.
