Very original stuff, excellent! I don't think I ever saw such a fire engine in 1/72 before. But my favorite is the red carriage!

The closest to a tutorial is on the MKII (it Shows it pre-paint)
http://paulsbods.blogspot.de/2015/03/18 ... arkii.html
Basically, it´s more or less find a line drawing (if you´re lucky a scale plan) and use that as a template.
Materials are what you can easily find, Card, bits of high density foam, wire

It gets easier, when planning or making them if you just "make it up as you go along" :-)

...or more difficult when you have to work to an exact plan (especially adding correct looking Suspension)

Very authentic. I can feel in each coach the "slowness" of their time. :yeah:
