I.P. Engineering W.H.R. No.6 Four Wheeled Passenger/Brake Coach
This is my first attempt at building rolling stock from a kit. Supplied by I.P. Engineering this is a
W.H.R. No.6 Four Wheeled Passenger/Brake Coach. The kit is mainly laser cut thin plywood and is very well produced.
I have included some pictures of the actual coach and as you can see it is a pretty close match. I have painted mine
LMS red so as to match the the Ragleth loco that will be pulling it.
This is what it looks like before you start!
I have since built 2 more. The eagle-eyed will have spotted that the new ones have glazed windows. I left the
windows out of the first one as i didn't know if i would need to add any weight and the roof is glued in place.
With the next 2 i decided to make the roof removeable so the glazing could go in.
Below are pictures of the real thing, currently in use on the Welsh Highland Railway.
