Bachmann 37-807A LMS 12T Planked Ventilated Van 'Express Dairy Company' Blue - OO Gauge

Description Bachmann 37-807A LMS 12T Planked Ventilated Van 'Express Dairy Company' Blue - OO Gauge Britain’s railways were developed primarily to move freight and the early railway companies employed vans of many different designs to transport goods and merchandise that required covered transport. Each railway company had its own designs, and the London Midland and Scottish Railway was no different, with many of its vans utilising a 10ft wheelbase with a 12T capacity. This model depicts a ventilated van in use with ‘Express Dairy Company’, which was fitted with vents at either end to allow fresh air to circulate within the wagon and keep perishable items cool whilst in transport. This Branchline model features an accurate bodyshell with fine plank engraving and further moulded detail. The chassis employs metal wheelsets of the 3-hole disc variety, whilst the brakes, brake handles and associated gear is all included. At either end metal buffer heads are fitted and the bufferbeam is completed with cosmetic coupling hooks. The iconic blue livery is applied using accurate colours and typefaces to produce a van fit for any OO scale model railway.
