Few railway designs are as recognisable or numerous as the private owner 3, 5 and 7 plank open wagons from the early 1900s.
Built in the tens, if not hundreds, of thousands, these simple four axle merchandise wagons would’ve carried all manner of goods, from loose material like sand and coal, to finished products like bricks or cement bags. Finished in colourful schemes devised by the wagon owner, these plank wagons could be seen all over Great Britain during the ‘Big Four’ and early nationalisation in the 1950s.
Our TT:120 scale model covers the 7-plank design, which often featured the most vibrant and interesting brandings.
This model is an example of a 7-plank wagon owned by A&H Betts, who operated as coal traders for many years in the 1900’s in south London, hence the Stewarts Lane branding. Running No. 45.
