Parkside Kits O Gauge PS601 W-601 GWR Toad 16t Brake Van Plastic Kit
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.
