bogie bolsters query

Apr 24, 2004 3 Replies

Have just bought a few of the new Bachmann bogie bolsters.... but what loads did such things carry, and more to the point, what is available in OO gauge model form ? The (shorter) Lima ones I have carry rail loads - but what else can realistically be modelled to add some interest to these wagons ? Grateful for advice... Cheers, stormicer

Virtually anything which could be physically loaded on to them, but quite often steel, pipes and the like.

And timbers, telephone poles and such. And they got borrowed by the S&T dept to carry signals to site for renewals. Keith
