        There was a series in EIM by Doug Hewson, could be 30 years ago. The 5in Ground Level club probably have drawings too.

            Search for wagons by Doug Hewson, especially his book ‘Constructing 5″ gauge Wagons’.

              Here’s a list of wagons done by Doug Hewson in EIM. The three numbers at the beginning of each line are “Volume, Issue, and page #”.

              8 10 298 Railway Building 5″ gauge Wagons
              9 6 175 Railway Building 5″ gauge Wagons. LNER 12 ton Covered Van
              9 12 367 Railway Building 5″ gauge Wagons. LMS 20 ton Goods Brake Van
              10 12 366 Railway Building 5″ gauge BR All Steel 16 Ton Mineral Wagon
              15 9 272 Railway Building an LNER 42 Ton Bogie Bolster ‘D’ Wagon in 5″ gauge
              16 3 69 Railway Building an LNER 12 Ton Single Bolster Wagon in 5″ gauge
              17 11 335 Railway LMS Plywood Vans
              17 3 79 Railway Building a GWR ‘Mink’
              18 11 335 Railway LNER 20 Ton Brake Van

              The first one is a wood 12 ton mineral wagon. I believe there were some others in later issues but I don’t have them at my finger tips.

                  I was one of the original ‘Subscribers’ to the DH 5″ Wagon box set.

                  The book came with a set of loose wagon construction drawings/plans all in a nice presentation box, so if you do find a copy, do make sure that you are getting the all drawings too (and not just the book). I doubt the Kindle version would be quite as useable in practice as the hardcopies..

                  Regards,
