Good news! Fans of BR's Speedlink era and 1980s freight operations will be delighted to learn that production of our popular PCA Cement Wagons is now complete, ahead of schedule!
We're delighted to confirm that both the original full rake of 15 Rugby Cement wagons and the STS grey wagons, with some carrying Sulfacrete branding for the first time, have now rolled off the production line. They're currently being prepared for shipment and are expected to arrive into stock in approximately 12 weeks' time.
These distinctive wagons have been proving exceptionally popular with modellers over the years, and it's easy to see why. Offering superb detail, accurate liveries and immense operational flexibility, they're an essential addition to any 1980s BR freight layout.
The iconic Rugby Cement rake captures one of the most recognisable block cement workings of the period, whilst the STS Sulfacrete branded examples provide an equally attractive alternative for those looking to recreate the varied cement traffic that characterised Britain's railway network during the decade.
Better still, there's no need to choose one or the other. During the 1980s it was not uncommon to see mixed rakes in operation, making it entirely prototypical to run Rugby Cement and STS branded grey wagons together in the same train. Whether hauled in block formations, or heading up a Speedlink working, these wagons will look right at home on layouts depicting the period.
With production now complete, the countdown to delivery has truly begun. Demand has been strong since launch, with stocks selling fast across the range, so if you've been considering adding these superb PCA wagons to your fleet, now is the perfect time to secure yours.
At their highly competitive price point of under £70 per triple pack, they represent outstanding value while stocks last and are sure to become a staple of any BR-era freight collection.
We look forward to welcoming them into our warehouse in around 12 weeks' time, ahead of schedule, and seeing the impressive cement workings they'll soon be forming on layouts across the country.
Don't miss out – with production complete and demand continuing to be high, we'd recommend ordering sooner rather than later.
