A model of the German Ssy 45 bogie flatcar in 1:35 scale; photo-etched parts are in the package as well.
Responsibility details are not available.
Flatcars with swiveling bogies were an inconspicuous but indispensable part of German wartime transport. Heavy equipment was not moved to the front under its own power but by rail, and the loading and unloading of tanks from such cars is a rewarding subject that brings a vehicle, figures and a piece of a railway station together into one scene. The Ssy 45 series car is a typical representative of these four-axle flatcars with a low load area.
The package brings this railway car in 1:35 scale, that is in the same scale in which most models of ground equipment are built, so you can load a vehicle from your collection straight onto it. Photo-etched parts for fine elements, where the thickness of an ordinary part would be conspicuous, are included as well. The extent of the package and the building procedure are described in the enclosed manufacturer's instructions.
Build the car on a flat surface so that the load area does not end up twisted and the model stands on all its wheels. Separate the photo-etched parts with a sharp blade on a hard surface, fold them along the marked grooves and glue them with super glue applied in a minute amount. Match the choice of glue for the other parts to their material according to the instructions. Before painting, wash everything in lukewarm water with detergent. Railway cars tended to be scuffed down to bare metal, so bring out the edges of the load area and the area around the lashing points with rust and rubbing.
The model suits diorama builders who want to set equipment into a transport scene. The vehicle, paints, glue and track are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
