This is going to be my version of Mike Williams' Midland 3 plank open wagon. I have a drawing dated 1875 and I'm following it as best I can. I've put in some rivets to represent the bolts that pass from the top edge of the sides and hold the planks together. I've also added two tie rings each side and two on the ends, also shown on the drawing. I will also be making up some wooden brake blocks and the gear that goes with them.
