Hi, i am building a Peco P-way wagon kit, the instructions say a hole needs to be drilled in the frame. Looking
at the diagram it shows were to drill the hole but it`s not a very clear (to me) image, opinions sought please.
There is , i think an injection point that could be it or a cross mark to the left of the drill bit on the sole bar.
I am note sure and do not want to ruin the kit before i start.

What is the hole for. Can’t you work out the position from whatever goes in the hole.

I think its for the brake handle ratchet.

Find what goes in the hole and locate the position by comparing it with a picture of the wagon.

Guessing.... It can't be that much. Possibly a brake wheel or lever pivot?

That’s right Brian it is to do with the brake rigging.

I think I have worked it out.

Its the brake ratchet bracket, simple enough to work out where to drill hole, looks a poor kit.

Well done
