Product Description

Expected Delivery Q2 2025 (Subject to change at Manufacturer's Discretion).

Hundreds of these general purpose two-axle vans were built from the early 1920's and were used on all railway networks in the UK. With folding end doors, they continued the long tradition of the Covered Carriage Truck (CCT), a type dating back to the 19th century for the movement of road carriages and cars.

However, as motor cars grew larger, they were banned from these duties in the mid-1960s, after which newspapers, mail and parcels traffic formed the bulk of their work. Many passed into departmental use from the 1970s onwards, proving useful as storage and tool vans.
