Bachmann OO 37-275G BR 27ton Steel Body Iron Ore Tippler Wagon Grey Early Weathered
An excellent model of the standard BR 27-ton iron ore tippler wagon painted in the goods grey livery. These wagons were used for many other loads in addition to iron ore, including other ores, sand and aggregates traffics.
Tippler wagons lacked side doors, being intended to be emptied by a tippler, a device which turned the entire wagon upside-down and dumped the contents into a hopper. Overhead grab buckets and mobile excavators can also be used to unload tippler type wagons.
