| All: Can anyone give the model dimensions (length, width, height?) of the Accucraft L&B open and closed wagons? Also, is there a US dealer that sells single cars? Accucraft only lists sets, but some UK vendors list singles. Thanks- | |

| Thanks, please let me know what you find out. I am fearing they may have taken a liberty and made them wider for 45mm and SM32 operation?
From what I can find, they were 5.5' wide in the real world, so they should be about 90mm wide in 16mm scale.

| Nice drawings link , thanks .
I have no idea if they are the right size or to scale or not , I think they look good in the photos and on the layout photos that I have seen .
I am safe , unless they make an electric Earl or Countess of the W&LLR , then , I am in need of some of the Accucraft cars of theW&LLR ! | |

| Dennis - an electric 'Earl'/'Countess' is indeed planned.
Start saving.

| Spule 4, did you ever get the dimensions that you wanted of the wagons? If not, I can measure my Accucraft L & B open wagons. Here are two photos at the Summer Steam Up with some of the wagons behind my 'Lyn'.
