WW1 Field Gun, Limber & Narrow Gauge Carrier Wagon #1
Limber carriage is mostly scratch built, just using wheels from another field gun kit.
Mostly styrene sheet and bits of brass. The horse bridle draw bar is made out of a chopstick 🙂
Limber completed. The folded tarp on the seat area is silk soaked in diluted PVA glue, the close threads seem a pretty good canvas at this scale.
The field gun hooks up to the back of the limber.
Loading ramps hook onto the wagon, gun goes up first.
Limber follows on, with the horse bridle draw bar detaching to slot in underneath.
Loaded, just needs chain adding to secure it.
Running in a WW1 narrow gauge train, behind a live steam Hunslet 4-6-0 locomotive on a friends garden railway line.

Wow, impressive weathering - garden railway modelling is not something you can see here often 👍
