Allen, I did not draw up my own plans. There are lots of books with the
construction details in them. However, I do have a drawn set of plans I
got from somewhere so they exist on the market, or did. The plans I
have for the wooden frame wagon are by A. J. R. Dando and are labeled
W001. They are in 7 1/4" gauge, but that can easily be widened to 7
1/2" without worry. I have no idea where I got the plans since they
came along with a lot of paperwork when I bought an unfinished 7 1/2"
Schools locomotive about 15 years ago. I obtained the wheel castings
from Reeves a long time ago before they were reorganized. It could be
that the plans came from Reeves also, but I have no way of knowing.
The plans I have are fairly ragged and have been cut and pasted into
several smaller sheets. All the various parts are there but the plans
are sure a bit difficult to read. Is there anything I can do to help
you out?
