That looks just the job!

Seriously, though, there are some very similar looking chassis in the Electrotren range - they do a canvas rolltop wagon which could be modified, not sure if they do a flat like that, there's nothing in the current range. The model length is given as 165mm overall.

Yes I agree Tim. The wheelbase of the Greek Flat is 8m and there are a lot of suitable donors. Base length 11760mm , width 2578mm and height of floor from top of rails 1185mm.

you are really fast! I make the decals, you make the conversion

I was thinking of something like this from Fleischman, all companies have similar models

by **TimCC6558** » Tue Sep 24, 2013 2:05 pm

That looks a much better choice.
