British Railways 20 Ton Standard Brake Van |
|||||||||||||
PROTOTYPE. British Railways built thousands of virtually identical brake vans from 1950 onwards to this standard design. Vacuum brake piped and unfitted versions were built. The design was based on an earlier LNER brake van. The vans lasted in service with BR until the late 1990’s and many are still in use on preserved railways. KIT. This is a very nice kit. Construction is straightforward but because of the number of parts it is not a quick kit to build. This kit would provide a very enjoyable weekend project. Straight brass wire for handrails and a pre-formed brass roof are included. |
