STEAM TIPPER WAGON

The first version was to take the cab from the manual with the bigger boiler and put a suitable tipping body as you see, trying to stick to the original instruction. This is a practical version but had no pictures to prove it, only a haulage version not a tipper. It would have 37h chassis with holes on top, and the body of 25h as seen in the picture; all the rest is the same as per instructions, apart from using spacers above the springs as I found the wheels too close to the underside of the body.

The switch for the E15 motor was out of the top of the cab as I found it easier to operate, consisting of 2 collars and an 8” axle. The front panel was a 17 x 7h flexible plate from Dave Taylor which I think looks better. Also a water/storage tank underneath the rear was added for realism.
