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.

BR 16 Tonner Coal Wagon

Absolutely fantastic models - The detail is just outstanding - I particulary liked this set with a color variation which sold out quickly. Best mineral wagons I have ever seen. The look superb !

Best rtr 16Ts so far

Well detailed. Various versions on sale concurrently so will have to wait for next run to build a long rake if you want all of exactly the same era.

We really needed these.

When it comes to 16 ton mineral wagons, these are a MAJOR step up from what we had in the past. They’re detailed wonderfully & are very free rolling. Highly recommend them.

Best 16T mineral wagons

These 16T mineral wagons are the best 00 gauge mineral wagons to be produced. All the right detail is present in the right places. Beautifully detailed under frames with full brake rigging. Superb.

These new 16t mineral wagons are excellent and really capture the character of the prototype in 4mm scale - TOP MARKS!

16 Ton Minerals Pack D

Another Excellent product from Accurascale. Easy to convert to p4 and the chassis seems to be consistently square so less need for compenstion. Sprung buffers help on reverse moves. More weight may be desirable but that will be based on running experience.

WOW

Absolutely stunning, after a period of time away from modelling I’ve returned to find this level of detail. Amazing!
