The Bachmann Branchline 20T Brake Van has long been the model of choice to bring up the rear of many a goods train and it’s easy to see why this model is still a firm favourite. Capturing the character of the prototype, the Branchline model is adorned with separate handrails, roof vents – which on this example are of the round torpedo variety – and lamp brackets. The footboards are also separately fitted, allowing different lengths to be modelled to suit the van being modelled – in this case short footboards are present. This particular brake van depicts a fitted van and so carries vacuum pipes and is fitted with a vacuum cylinder underneath. With planked sides, ends and veranda partitions, the cabin doors have two windowpanes each.
