I'm looking for a few pairs of wipers, mainly for my A stock. Any ideas where I can get some, and relatively cheaply? Cheers

Try MJT etched ones available from Dart Castings. They may have some suitable ones. Either that or model them housed in a shroud when not in use.... ;D

Replica Railways include wipes there set of jumpers and cables for there MLV - Maybe not the cheapest solution though.

No I did see them. They are lovely but I could only use one wiper and at £4.95, they're not that nice!
I'll look out for MJT....

If you're hard pressed to find these, I found that drawing them to scale in a graphics program and then printing them out on transparency works quite well. Then, cut them out taking care to cut along the edges. I made the wipers for the 92 stock this way (they're for quite large) and they do look convincing.

I've ordered some pairs from MJT for my A stock units and will paint them up and take photos when they come. These may also be good for C and D stock along with some T stock cars.
