Hi Troybettes
PPS models in Frome (spelling) sell a P&J models wickam trolley
in 16mm scale in both 32 and 45mm gauge
It may be worth having a look at before resorting to scratch building as it is a wickam you may be able to get away with it as it is a very small vehicle
thats the only thought I have.
regards John
PS is that a ROD one ??

Nice one Phil.
I love these things.My Dad used to own two at the museum.One of them is the picture I posted with a young me holding up the sign.If you look at my website under wickams there are loads of different ones.Could I use this picture and add it to the list?
John,I'm afraid I don't know what you mean about it being a ROD one.I will check that site though.Thanks.
