Featuring:

  • Scale: 1:76 Scale 00 Gauge
Technical Specifications:
  • Brand: Hornby
  • Model Type: Freight Wagon
  • Era / Prototype: Era 3 - Grouping (1923 - 1947)
  • Minimum Curve Radius: Radius 1
  • Included: 1x Model Freight Wagon, 1x Instructions

Ideal for modellers building a 1:76 scale 00 gauge layout set in Era 3, particularly those looking to add a D Townsend, Rock Merchant Lowmac wagon to their period freight stock.

Why this model matters

The Hornby Lowmac represents a wagon configuration developed to address British railway loading-gauge limitations. Its lowered design allowed goods to sit closer to the rail, while this model is specifically branded with D Townsend, Rock Merchant and represents Era 3 - Grouping (1923 - 1947).

How to use it

Place the Lowmac on a suitable 00 gauge layout and incorporate it into an Era 3 freight formation. Hornby specifies a minimum curve of Radius 1 for this model. Handle the wagon carefully when coupling, placing it on the layout and storing it, and retain the supplied instructions for reference.
