16t Mineral Wagon Top F/Doors Set (3) BR Grey Weathered
Coal fuelled Britain during the twentieth century and much of this fuel was transported by rail. The 16 Ton Steel Mineral Wagon began as a wartime design, but following Nationalisation hundreds of thousands of these humble four-wheel wagons would be ordered by BR to move coal around the UK, replacing the wooden-bodied wagons that had been inherited from the ‘Big Four’ railway companies and private owners.
This Bachmann Branchline model depicts a wagon with a pressed steel end door and side doors which have top flaps – this aided manual unloading in coal yards. Bottom discharge doors are also present whilst this wagon sports double sided brakes and is fitted with 3-hole disc wheels which are of metal construction. The unmistakable look of the 16T Mineral Wagon is expertly replicated, with this Branchline model boasting separately fitted metal door stops, brake gear, linkage and hand brake levers, along with metal buffer heads and cosmetic coupling hooks. Authentic colours and typefaces are employed during the livery application prototype, completing this high-fidelity model.
