Looking for a 4 wheel/bogey set up in 3 ft ng

Post by thegrindre »

Hi guys,
Does anybody know of a 4 wheel/bogey I could alies for trucks under a short logging caboose in 36" ng?
I'd like to try my hand at a little 4 wheeled 'bobber' in 36" gauge.

Thanks,

:D

The older D&RG rolling stock that Elvenor made uses 4 wheel bogeys.

If those don't fit then I would be willing to make one for you.

Wow, thanks for the offer. lilb. I found these by Elvenor. A lot of his stuff isn't animated but these are.
The story goes, there was a pretty nasty train wreck and the logging company went 'strolling' by and grabbed these off of a demolished passenger car so they built a logging 'bobber' on top of them...

Wadda ya think?

Not bad, but you should dirty them up a little.

If you need help making anything I'd be happy to help.

I'm catching on to 3DC pretty well so far but haven't gotten into animations yet. I'd 'dump' all that 'hard stuff' on you, ya know?
