An excellent model of the classic 7-plank open coal wagon painted in the LNER goods grey livery, lettered NE.
These 7-plank end door wagons were used in coal and mineral service, the end doors allowing the wagons to be emptied quickly. Built to specifications laid down by the railway companies through the Railways Clearing House (RCH) these wagons used a range of standard parts, allowing them to be repaired at any railway or private repair station. The LMS and LNER used many standard RCH wagons, while the GWR and SR re-designed their standard wagons to use the RCH parts.
