Product Description

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 modeled incorporating modifications made to the prototypes during their working life are included where appropriate.
