O 20T Brake Van B951224 BR Baxite CAP
British Railways standard 20 ton goods brake van. No layout would be complete without a couple of these vehicles. The Dapol brake vans encompass Diagrams 1/504 (vacuum through piped) and 1/506 (Unfitted) manufactured between 1951 and 1957 totalling some 2,300 vehicles, however we also plan to produce the last batches of Diagrams 1/506 and 1/507 totalling 1,830 units, these having roller bearing axle boxes in place of the oil type and Oleo self contained buffers.
Features:
- Gauge: O
- Die cast chassis for added weight.
- A compensation beam to improve running qualities (standard to all later Dapol designed wagons)
- Sprung metal buffers
- Sprung metal couplings either instanter link or screw type where applicable
- Die-cast wheels with steel tyres
- Pin-point brass bearings
