16mm Welshpool and Llanfair Flat Wagon

3D printed, with no need to paint

This wonderful flat wagon is the perfect entry into the world of Woodleigh Engineering. Affordable, simple to build, high in detail.

This wagon is based on very early wagons seen on the W&L railway. Many of the flat wagons were converted to use as sheep wagons. We've opted for something a little different here - an "original" flat wagon without the modifications for livestock!

No sanding, no painting, no fuss - that's the Woodleigh Engineering way.

Insulated wheels adjustable between 32 and 45mm gauge.

Complete with extremely detailed instructions.

Made by us, in the UK 🇬🇧

Assembly

Assembly can be done in less than one hour. No painting is required, and it's not necessary to stick on lots of tiny little iron work or makers plates etc. For example, the solebars come with nine detailed parts already fitted, the sides come with the all iron work attached and are pre-coloured.
