WW1 Field Gun, Limber & Narrow Gauge Carrier Wagon #1

Album image #1
Limber carriage is mostly scratch built, just using wheels from another field gun kit. 
 

Album image #2
Mostly styrene sheet and bits of brass. The horse bridle draw bar is made out of a chopstick 🙂 
 

Album image #3
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. 
 

Album image #4
The field gun hooks up to the back of the limber. 
 

Album image #5
Loading ramps hook onto the wagon, gun goes up first. 
 

Album image #6
Limber follows on, with the horse bridle draw bar detaching to slot in underneath. 
 

Album image #7
Loaded, just needs chain adding to secure it. 
 

Album image #8
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 👍
