MR (big) box van kit

 

Spotted on a stand at York, a Slater'S Gauge 1 box van kit. Part built, but, as far as I can tell, complete, and priced about £30 cheaper than buying new, I snapped it up. 

I've built this kit in 4mm several times, and always liked it, so why not try in the larger scale? 

First impressions are good. The previous builder has done a good job. There were obviously some issues with the moving (sprung I think) axleboxes, but these have been resolved. 

It all seems nice and square. In theory, this will be a quick project. The instructions (missing from my box) have been downloaded, so let's see.
