O scale Circus Wagons

[TrucTrain55]

I built a lot of HO Circus Wagons and equipment now that I’m in O scale I thought I’d start building some Circus wagons. This is one of my first O scale semi scratch built wagons. I’m waiting for more detail parts from Don Mills

I can almost hear the caliope.

Jazz. Thanks for the complement I had a hard time loading this pics for some reason. Look for more Circus Equipment soon

While waiting on my parts I thought I would start another Circus Wagon

Got some paint on the wagon and decaled it. I didn’t like the way they turned out I may buy some replacements

Depending on where you're going with these wagons, this may be right on track. In the later years, many circus pieces had so many layers of paint on them the fine details were obscured.

Will you do any where the plaster or wood carvings are chipped?

 

[TrucTrain55]

Jazz. Yes I will be making some with carvings and animals wagons also please stay tuned. My next one will be a pole Wagon when these are done

I like the rustic look those have...More like a well used wagon.

Thanks Patrick
