Post Description

Freight workings are the lifeblood of most railways and modellers have never had so wide a choice of goods vehicles with which to operate their layouts - from commonplace vans and mineral wagons to highly specialised vehicles developed for particular traffic flows. 

But there's still much you can do to enhance your wagon fleet, whether it's built from kits or bought ready-to-run. And you don't need an unlimited budget or a workshop full of expensive tools to do so . . .

In this two-hour DVD presentation Iain Rice gives you a comprehensive guide to the essentials - from how to access the necessary background information to choosing the right equipment for the job. He shows you how to perform simple upgrades to RTR stock, encourages you to think about improving or even replacing the underframe (always the weakest point of proprietary models), and takes you through a step-by-step build of a couple of high-quality plastic wagon kits.

The emphasis throughout is on the practical and the achievable - and there's no one better qualified than Iain Rice to act as your tutor. The author of hundreds of magazine articles and a dozen or more modelling books, he's a highly accomplished professional model-maker who's as well known in Europe and the USA as he is in the UK.
