Seen as very much the ‘missing link’ in the ‘Powering Britain’ range, the 16 ton mineral wagon is an essential addition to the Accurascale range to tell the story of coal traffic on the railways throughout the 20th century. The archetypal BR 16 ton all-steel non-hoppered mineral wagon proliferated across the United Kingdom’s railway network during the 1950s and 1960s and there was probably not a siding, freight yard or industrial railway system in the country that did not house at least an example or three of these vitally important, yet mundane railway vehicles.
  • Model Specification:
  • Die-cast metal chassis with plastic body. Weight of 37g (excluding coal load).
  • Scale length of 78mm over buffers, and 34.53mm wide.
  • Wheelbase of 36mm, allowing operation over a minimum radius of 371mm (1st radius set-track).
  • Separately fitted side doors, top doors and end doors.
  • Metal 3-hole wheels; chemically blackened 00 Gauge RP25-110 standard, set in blackened brass bearings and conforming to Accurascale standards of 14.4mm back-to-back, on 2mm axles over 26mm pinpoints.
  • Eroded metal, plastic and wire detail parts, including handrails, grab handles, side-door handles, lamp brackets, brake gear, draw gear, 3-link and Instanter couplings.
  • Turned metal sprung buffers.

Lovely Wagons

These wagons are exquisiltely detailed, look great in their ICI livery, with the tarpaulins looking realistic. They run well and were a good price with the rake discount.

These wagons are excellent I was'nt expecting them to come with sheets which are very realistic, massive upgrade from the Mainline ones.

Unique Livery Minerals

This is another outstanding wagon model, finely detailed with an exquisite finish, including wagon-specific details and lettering. The patchwork finish on the sheet covers is a nice touch. Used for soda ash traffic, the only thing needed is some appropriate weathering of the wagon itself as I'm sure they didn't stay in pristine condition for long - a little rust and a white powdery dusting from spilled soda ash. My only issue is I can't figure out how to remove the sheet covering. I'd like to have one in its unloaded state with the internal support bar installed, and the sheets will need removing temporarily from the others to properly weather the wagons. Other than that, these are a fantastic addition to the range.

Keep getting better

These guys know how to make a model and these are some of the best, if not the best, wagon models made yet. First rate.
