LNER Bolster Wagon
By B. Peacock
This bolster wagon was built in 2007 as a basic freight wagon to include into a train.
The log sits on the bolsters held down by chains, and now locates on two hidden 6mm pins to prevent forward movement while in use (learnt that one the hard way).
Dummy single Morton brake gear was fitted, but a separate operating brake was later added during conversion to a driving truck.
A notice on the side of the wagon states 'Return to the Forest of Cheem'.
