An ideal load for a conflat or haulage vehicle, or as an accessory in a station yard or factory. Once dubbed 'the suitcase of industry' these railway containers were the precursor of the modern container, allowing a contained load to be quickly unloaded or transhipped from rail to road transport.

Built in 1957, this small fleet of open wagons were design specifically for the movement of consignments to and from the continent by the channel train ferry. Allocated to the Southern Region, they featured an adjustable bar that supported a tarpaulin. On our model the bar is included, and can be removed as required, as was done on the real wagons when they were eventually used for internal traffic. Our model faithfully replicates the bauxite livery and all the various markings as per the prototype, including the corner flashes in black and white. All Peco wagons feature free running wheels in pin point axles. The ELC coupling, whilst compatible with the standard N gauge couplings, keeps a realistic distance between the vehicles and enables the PL-25 electro magnetic decoupler to be used for remote uncoupling.

Railway companies all had a stock of their own vehicles for carrying goods and merchandise around their network, and also onto other companies' routes as and when required. These were integrated into British Railways at Nationalisation; some of them to be once more re liveried under sectorisation as the network was prepared to be returned to private ownership.

In August 2023 DB Cargo retired the last of the former BR/ECC china clay CDA hoppers after a service life of 35 years. These unique and distinctive wagons will be missed by enthusiasts but thanks to PECO, modellers can keep their legacy going in model form!

Note that the CDA wagons are now fitted with metal-tyred wheels as standard.

The CDA China Clay hopper, and the HAA Coal Hopper, are closely related, sharing the same design and operational principles, with bottom hopper doors opened to empty the contents, in the case of china clay, for loading into ships at Carne Point, near Fowey in Cornwall. As china clay must be kept dry special rolling tarpaulin covers protected the load, as featured on our models.

These wagon and van kits are very quick and easy to assemble. Consisting of a one-piece pre coloured body moulding, chassis, chassis weight, disc wheels and couplings, they are essentially unpainted, unassembled versions of our famous ready to run range.

A useful remote operating feature for use with Peco N Gauge ELC couplings, or other N gauge couplings that do not incorporate a spring. 16 unobtrusive Coupling Lift Arms are supplied with this unit (NR-103 Coupling Lift Arms pack contains 32 if more are required). The uncoupler creates a temporary magnetic field which attracts the steel lift arm down, thereby pivoting the coupling upwards to decouple (at other times trains run through unaffected). A 16v AC supply is required, operated by a non latching push button (not included). Installation is simple, just drill a small hole in the centre of the trackbed and fit the unit under the baseboard with 2 screws. Full instructions included.

Private owner wagons abounded prior to nationalisation, they would often be seen far from their base as they were sent to collect raw materials and supplies such as coal, and deliver finished goods.
