C&D – Cattle transport body for PB-type (1-148)

thingiverse

<p>Due to a known bug in thingiverse I can't publish larger stl-files. The developer team is working on the issue, but meanwhile you may download the files here:</p> https://www.printables.com/de/model/337409-cd-cattle-transport-body-for-pb-type-1-148/files ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After upload of the cows a while ago  https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5554567 I finally finished the cattle body for my Thornycroft-PB-type. Chassis/cab/wheels and driver figures of any version can be downloaded here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5413854 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5504470 The body can be printed with open or closed ramp.  I also introduce here the fender guards, able to use with any other chassis/body of the PB-type. For loading/unloading scenes two “cowboys” are available to. Bottom of ramp and body is normally covered by straw. In my diorama I used some from Woodland Scenics, available in different lengths (I used FS620, 4mm): https://woodlandscenics.woodlandscenics.com/show/item/SGS For H0/OO-scale the Faller straw 170776 might be the better choice, as in my eyes the Woodland one is a little to yellow, the Faller ones looks more naturally, but is only available in 6mm, what is too long for n-scale (in my view): https://www.faller.de/en/model-layout-construction/fields-meadow/1119/premium-ground-cover-fibres-straw-6-mm-30-g?number=170776 I had my fun creating this model, hope it will be helpful to someone for his model railway or just for display. I would be happy to see your version. All models sized for British n-scale (1:148). Conversion values: Continental N-scale, 1:160 -> 92.5% TT-gauge, 1:120 -> 123% HO/H0-gauge, 1:87 -> 170% OO/00-gauge, 1:76 -> 195% S-gauge, 1:64 -> 231% O-gauge, 1:48 -> 308%
