Slaters GWR Diagram O5 4 Plank Open Merchandise Wagon

This plastic model kit was produced by Cooper Craft, this range of kits has been taken into the Slater's range and are now supplied with wheels, bearings and turned steel buffers.

This kit builds a model of a GWR 1900 type 4 plank open wagons designated diagram O5. 200 of thee wagons were built, the last in the line of GWR 4 plank opens, the next design introducing the new standard 5 plank design body.

Built on steel underframes and fitted with or upgraded with oil axleboxes diagram O5 wagons were the longest-lived of the GWR's 4 plank open merchandise wagon fleet, which was steadily replaced by new 5 and 7 plank wagons built between 1905 and 1915. While some lasted until nationalisation, these newest being among the last 4 plank wagons to be replaced, numbers had declined through the 1930s.

The GWR were early innovators with iron and steel for wagon construction, building large numbers of robust and long-lived iron and steel bodied wagons. The locomotive coal fleet was filled with iron bodied open wagons in a range of capacities, the 10ton versions being seen regularly at small branch terminus locomotive sheds.
This plastic model kit was produced by Cooper Craft, this range of kits has been taken into the Slater's range and are now supplied complete with wheels, bearings and sprung buffers.

Slaters 7015 GWR Rebuilt 3 plank open merchandise wagon

This plastic model kit was produced by Cooper Craft, this range of kits has been taken into the Slater's range and are now supplied with wheels, bearings and turned steel buffers.

This kit builds a model of one of the GWRs 3 plank open wagon rebuilds.

Rebuilding was a rapid and cost effective route to the upgrading of older wagons built in the late 1880s and 1890s with iron underframes after the original bodies were becoming too damaged to be simply repaired. New style bodies were built onto the still-servicable underframes extending their working lives into the 1930s at a minimum cost.

This kit builds a model of a GWR diagram L22 16-foot length match truck, a series of low-sided wagons likely built using older wagon underfarmes and principally intended for use as runner wagons under crane jibs and over-length loads. These wagons were also referred to as machinery trucks and could be seen carrying large sleeted or crated loads and containers which could be secured to the wagon with ropes or chains.

This Cooper Craft model kit has been taken into the Slater's range and are now supplied with wheels, bearings and turned steel buffers.

Horsebox vans were a common sight on Britains' railways until the 1960s. This model kit is the GWR design dating from the 1920s, with a grooms' compartment, large side doors to allow horses to be loaded and unloaded easily and a stowage compartment for fodder. Equipped with passenger type suspension, vacuum brakes and often steam heating these horseboxes would be conveyed by passenger trains on many branchlines and by secondary trains on the mainline. Long trains of horseboxes were also seen sometimes, especially when a major race meet or polo tournament was imminent!
300 of these vehicles were built in the 1920s, lasting into the 1950s and 60s. Transfers for GWR and BR.
Supplied with metal wheels and 3 link couplings.

Detailed plastic model kit building a model of the GWR plywood sided ventilated box vans of diagram V36 or V37.
Plywood was used as an alternative to planks for ventilated box vans from the late 1930s. This GWR design dates from 1944 and can be built as diagram V36 with vacuum brakes or diagram V37 with hand brake only. The last GWR orders of these vans were completed after nationalisation as BR diagrams 1/203 (fitted) and 1/205 (unfitted). Many of the GWR V37 and BR 1/205 vans were retro-fitted with vacuum brakes during the 1950s and the last of these vans were withdrawn in the 1970s. Transfers supplied for GWR and BR liveries.

350 of these were built between 1933 and 1936 with end doors for carrying motor vehicles. The telegraphic code was MOGO, a contraction of MOtor car GOods. The main traffic was from Morris Cowley, while the retention of side doors allowed them to be used for general merchandise, often providing a useful return load. In BR service many were used for traffic from the Metal Box Company in Carlisle where end loading docks were provided. All were withdrawn in the 1960s, displaced by BR design CCT and GUV vans. Transfers for GWR and BR.

Marketed by the GWR through the offer of reduced haulage rates the 20-ton steel open wagon began the trend towards the use of higher capacity wagons.

This kit builds a model of the standard GWR 'Felix Pole' 20-ton open wagon. These were purchased by private owners and leased from the GWR by several collieries in the late 1930s. Almost 1,000 of these high capacity wagons were built in the 1920s for Welsh coal traffic. Re-rated to a 21-ton capacity wagon during the Second World War, they were in traffic until the 1960s. Transfers for GWR and BR, and for Norths Navigation Collieries.
Supplied with metal wheels and 3 link couplings.

Some of these wagons also operated in locomotive coal service, however as the loco department had it's own design of 20-tonners (kit PS47) these 'traffic' wagons may have been temporarily hijacked!.

Plastic kit to build a detailed model of the GWR 16-ton goods brake van.
The Peco kits feature a simple compensation system for reliable running. Couplings, sprung buffers, metal wheels and wire for handrails are all included.
These vans date from the late 1890 and 1900s and are shorter than the later standard 20 ton vans which appeared during the Churchward era. These lighter goods brake vans were rapidly displaced from mainline duties but many were still in service on branchlines well into the nationalisation period.
