Tube Wagon, GW, dark grey

If you are looking for N gauge goods wagons, and don’t wishto construct your own, then are plenty of ready-to-run modelsavailable such as this one from the Peco ‘Quality Line’ range.This is a 15ft wheelbase tube wagon based on a 1950s BR design andis finished in the GW dark grey livery. The real things were usedto transport pipes, usually packed in straw, and were designed foruse on ferry trains to the continent. If you want to build ityourself to create a different variant or save some money,this is also available in unpainted kit form as KNR-7.

Railway companies all had a stock of their own vehicles for carrying goods and merchandise around their network, and also onto other companies' routes as and when required.

These were integrated into British Railways at Nationalisation; some of them to be once more re liveried under sectorisation as the network was prepared to be returned to private ownership.

All Peco wagons feature free running wheels in pin point axles.

The ELC coupling, whilst compatible with the standard N gauge couplings, keeps a realistic distance between the vehicles and enables the PL-25 electro magnetic decoupler to be used for remote uncoupling.
