LMS 12ton Wood-bodied Van 9' (D1664)

LMS 12ton Wood-bodied Van 9' (D1664 built 1924-1926) -  Unventilated, "Wood ends" - OO unpainted plastic kit

Require glue, paint, transfers, couplings, wheels (Gibson 12mm & brass bearings) to complete.

D1664 unfitted type, steel underframe (9' 0" wb./ 17' 6" oh.). These were a modified version of the MR D664 van, the differences being reversal of the diagonal side strapping, and a backwards step in the reduction of the wheelbase to 9 feet. It may be that this was suitable for use in yards having wagon turntables. 2.544 vans were built between 1924 and 1926. Some vans remained in use until the 1960s.

Alan Gibson Wheels compatible : 12mm "Open" spoked, 12mm 8 spoked
