WW1 Schmalspur Austin Car Umbau (28mm)

The laser-cut pieces were clean and aligned well, so assembly took less time than I expected. Swapping the burned-out engine for this conversion gave my old car a second life, and the lighter weight makes daytime moves feel safer.

The laser-etched wood parts fit together perfectly, and the included crew figures add great detail. I used it to replace a ruined engine on my layout’s narrow gauge car, and it’s now much harder to spot during daylight runs.

Replacing the destroyed engine on my Austin was a pain until I grabbed this conversion kit, and the laser-cut wood went together cleanly in about an afternoon. The reduced profile for daytime supply runs is a nice touch that actually makes sense on the tabletop.
