BR 12 ton Pipe Wagon

BR 12 ton Pipe Wagon

800 of these wagons were built between 1949 and 1954, to an LMS design, to carry iron pipes chiefly from the giant works at Stanton and Stavely.

They were vacuum fitted during the 1950s and this model repesents this variation. With the decline in pipe traffic in the 1970s these wagons were utilised for various other traffic and some were transferred to the Engineers fleet.

This finely moulded plastic wagon kit comes complete with pin point axle wheels and bearings. Glue and paint will be required, along with appropriate transfers. Additional parts to enable the vehicle to be modelled incorporating modifications made to the prototypes during their working life are included where appropriate.

Comes with metal wheels. Coupling required.
