Den 16 ton stora mineralvagnen, som i hög grad betraktas som "den saknade länken" i "Powering Britain"-serien, är ett viktigt tillskott till Accurascale-serien för att berätta historien om koltrafiken på järnvägarna under 1900-talet. Den arketypiska BR 16-tons mineralvagnen i helt stål utan tratt spreds över Storbritanniens järnvägsnät under 1950- och 1960-talen och det fanns förmodligen inte ett sidospår, godsbanor eller industriellt järnvägssystem i landet som inte inhyste åtminstone ett eller tre av dessa livsviktiga, men vardagliga järnvägsfordon.

Best rtr 16Ts so far

Well detailed and will benefit from a bit of weathering

Good models

I’m no expert in 16t minerals but these look the part and run well. I need to weather them as they were never pristine for long.

16ton mineral

The mineral wagons contain a wealth of fine detail. It seems that etched components have been used to create the fine details. The Dia 109 don`t have the cosmetic gusset / stanchions which connect the body to the solebar, whilst Dia 108 have these . However I am very dissapointed that these wagons can not be converted to EM or P4 gauge without major surgery. When Accurscale was launched you stated that the finescale society`s would be consulted to help with conversions. Clearly not in this case. When you launch a product please state if it is designed with the wider gauges in mind. I am not looking forward to converting 21 minerals. Brake gear and safety loops have to be removed and repositioned. Not easy . I appreciate most of your customers will be 00 gauge but it would be pleasing if modellers working in the finer scales are considered. The Mk 1 surburbans require major work to convert to P4. I hope this is not regarded as negative but of constructive criticism and I will continue to purchase models suitable for my era.

And another pack of 16t minerals

A very easy way to build a coal train with uniquely numbered wagons. Plenty of detail, with opportunity for lots of subtle variations across the wagons.

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