GWR Horse Box Wagon

300 of these vehicles were built in the 1920s, lasting into the 1950s and 60s. They were used to carry horses to racecourses and stables, often marshalled into passenger and parcels trains. Transfers for GWR and BR. These finely moulded plastic wagon kits come complete with pin point axle wheels and bearings, 3 link couplings and transfers. This kit is supplied with pre-coloured moulded parts although painting can improve the appearance. Additional parts to enable the vehicle to be modelled incorporating modifications made to the prototypes during their working life are included where appropriate.

GWR Iron Mink 'A' Van Kit

Used first for perishable goods and later for gunpowder, these vans were also built by the LNWR, LSWR and used as private owner vans. Transfers are included; glue and paints are required to complete this model.

GWR Mica Insulated Van

In 1929, 54 of these vans were built to carry meat in chilled conditions. The hoppers inside were filled with “Drikeld” solid carbon dioxide through characteristic roof vents. They lasted into the 1960s, some being converted into “TEVAN” vans (PS48). Transfers for GWR and BR. These finely moulded plastic wagon kits come complete with pin point axle wheels and bearings, 3 link couplings and transfers. This kit is supplied with pre-coloured moulded parts although painting can improve the appearance. Additional parts to enable the vehicle to be modelled incorporating modifications made to the prototypes during their working life are included where appropriate.

GWR Mink Goods Van

Introduced in 1906, these vans (diagram V11) were used for general goods traffic until during the Second World War. Being fitted with the vacuum brake, they were frequently found on GWR express goods trains. These finely moulded plastic wagon kits come complete with pin point axle wheels and bearings. Glue and paint will be required, along with appropriate transfers. Additional parts to enable the vehicle to be modelled incorporating modifications made to the prototypes during their working life are included where appropriate.

GWR Mink Goods Van

(Diagram V22) Introduced in 1931 to carry express goods traffic between the main stations on the GWR system. One hundred were built and lasted in service until the 1960s.These finely moulded plastic wagon kits come complete with pin point axle wheels and bearings. Glue and paint will be required, along with appropriate transfers. Additional parts to enable the vehicle to be modelled incorporating modifications made to the prototypes during their working life are included where appropriate.

GWR Motor Car Van 'MOGO' Kit

Built between 1933 and 1936 solely for the transport of cars. The end doors allowed cars to be driven in and out via a special unloading dock at the end of a siding. Transfers are included; glue and paints are required to complete this model.

GWR Parallel Shank Buffers

0 Gauge Chassis kits and Accessories for scratchbuilders and kit modification. This pack contains sufficient components to assemble four buffers and two 3- link couplings. Three-link chain couplings, with no means of drawing the wagons together, were used to form the peculiarly British "loose coupled" freight train: since such trains were not fitted with an automatic through-train braking system there were no pipes to connect between the vehicles. Control of the train was assisted by the guard's van at the rear of the train, or in certain cases a series of vans spaced along the train, which were used to keep the couplings taut and therefore also helped prevent snapped couplings. Such trains travelled at low speeds and were finally phased out in the 1970s.

GWR Permanent Way Brake Van

The GWR built these special brake vans between 1890 and 1900, for use on track maintenance trains. They have end windows instead of the usuall verandah. Easy to assemble from the correctly coloured injection moulded components (no painting necessary). Kits include Transfers. Buffers are sprung and 3-link couplings are included on all models, while the BR wagons also feature working axlebox springs and moveable brake levers. Fine scale metal tyred wheels on pin-point axles supplied, spoked for the GWR wagons or 3-hole disc for the BR types. Fully illustrated instructions included.

GWR Plate Wagon Bogies

Pack includes parts to make a pair of these heavy duty design bogies that feature cast steel type sideframes. Kit includes bolster, wheels and tension lock couplings; supplied with pre-coloured parts although painting and/or weathering can add realism; glue is required to complete this model.

GWR Python Covered Carriage Coach Van

Introduced in 1914, these vehicles carried parcels and motor vehicles until the early days of BR. These finely moulded plastic wagon kits come complete with pin point axle wheels and bearings. Glue and paint will be required, along with appropriate transfers. Additional parts to enable the vehicle to be modelled incorporating modifications made to the prototypes during their working life are included where appropriate.

GWR Removals, Conflat Wagon with Container

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. 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.

GWR Tapered Shank Buffers

0 Gauge Chassis kits and Accessories for scratchbuilders and kit modification. This pack contains sufficient components to assemble four buffers and two 3- link couplings. Three-link chain couplings, with no means of drawing the wagons together, were used to form the peculiarly British "loose coupled" freight train: since such trains were not fitted with an automatic through-train braking system there were no pipes to connect between the vehicles. Control of the train was assisted by the guard's van at the rear of the train, or in certain cases a series of vans spaced along the train, which kept the couplings taut and therefore also helped prevent snapped couplings.
