A few years ago I built some models in 7/8" scale for gauge 1 track (two-foot gauge). Most were based on Welsh prototypes. Here are a few photos of Idlenot Light Railways tool van No. 2 based on the Glen Valley Tram box van #2. It is built from plans in one of Bernard Rockett's books.
The model is mostly basswood with scratch-built brass and steel details. The running gear is from Sierra Valley Enterprises. The couplers are Accucraft 16mm choppers.
A construction article was published in May 2021 Garden Rail (the British magazine, not Marc's).
The photos were taken on Rich Chiodo's beautiful Isle of Shoals Tramway.

Very nice looking! Welcome to the forum. Please post more photos!
Well done, I like the subtle weathering marks.

Excellent work!
Too bad I already had stopped publishing or I would have begged you for a detailed construction article. -- Russ
