MOW/PWM-Train Part 2

Earlier this year I converted a LGB hatched gondola into a 'Maintenance of Way' wagon, or Permanent Way Maintenance in British terms, so my Heeresfeldbahn are able to perform emergency repairs on the line, which seems plausible for railways operating under combat conditions where railways are targetet for sabotage actions and aerial bombings etc. It had a lot of tools and sand to carry out repairs and maintenance on The Permanent Way:

What my Permanent Way Department actually lacked was some extra rails and sleepers to replace (battle-) damaged tracks. So I decided to add a load with some extra rails and sleepers to my Permanent Way Department. The sleepers and tracks were sourced from free STL-files on the Internet, 3D-printed and painted:

Instead of permanently load one of my wagons with the sleepers and rails or make a new one for this purpose, I decided to make it as a replaceable load to fit standard sized LGB-wagons. No needs for dedicated wagons for different loads. So a new 'fake' wagon floor was 3D-printed to fit and painted:

Then the 3D-printed  rails and sleepers were fitted to the new floor:

Since I was going to fit this load on a standard sized LGB wagon already in my inventory, I used the opportunity to weather another recent remodeling project which I wasn't quite satisfied with:

Then the load was fitted to the wagon:

Togheter with the hatched gondola with tools and sand, these two wagons will give my military G-scale trains capacity to perform maintenance and emergency repairs on the right of way, and I think their generic approach will make them usable behind both my German Heeresfeldbahn and British WDLR engines.
