WARP 10 Car Kits

[Schraddel]

Hello,


Next were coupler boxes. The upper half of Kadee #242 snap together were centered and glued with CA. This avoids hassle with CA on unwanted areas.





When the CA is hardenend the bottom lid is simply clipped onto. As we are uncoupling only by hand with wooden shaslik spits, the trip pins were obsolete and therefore removed.





Both cars were equipped with 3-point equalisation for better and stable running. No rocking here anymore.





The trucks were bolted on and for the first time the cars were standing onto track.






Now is the time to control the coupler height and correct it if necessary.
One car was equipped with Atlas trucks and Atlas wheelsets, the other car was equipped with trucks of unknown manufacture (maybe Bowser?) and Kadee wheelsets.
