Hello the Forum

Returning back to the hobby after a couple of years.

I thought I might pick up and complete an already started project.  Based on an article in Railway Modeller June 2011. Page 458-461
I've upscaled a GWR 45' Macaw B  from an N gauge article to create parts  for 3 wagons.

I'm interested to buy 6 bogie kits to suit these workhorses.
I've seen bogies for coaches on line but not wagons. Is any thing on the market?

Can anyone of you sign post me to a supplier.

Many Thanks

The GRS do/did provide bogie spares for their Macaw H kit but they're out of stock i'm afraid.

You could ask them about any more being made if they would be passible under a Macaw B or ask Walsall about possible parts from off their H kit.
