Demountable Container Kit for Old Hornby Tank Wagons
An easy and inexpensive way to breathe new life into those broken old 4-wheel Hornby tank wagons you have kicking around.
Strip down the upper works until you are left with the chassis and weight (Picture 3)
Glue or friction-fit the new wagon bed(s) (Pictures 4 & 5) using a single bed if you want the container to locate onto the chassis pins or both beds if you want the container to lift off and on by crane, for example.
Friction fit the container body (Picture 6)
Glue the inner roof to the underside of the outer roof and fix the supplied self-adhesive weight into the little niche where it lives (Picture 7). The weight not only provides further stability to the wagon, but also allows the container to be lifted from the chassis by an electromagnet for those using the demountable function as described in the previous paragraph.
Glue the roof to the body of the container, and you are all done (Pictures 8,9 & 10)

Just for absolute clarity, this is a kit to modify YOUR old Hornby Tank Wagon chassis; the chassis is not supplied, everything else is.
