Civil Engineers YGB Seacow Wagon 980100 is a newly tooled model with a 'Dutch' Grey and Yellow livery. Featuring intricate detailing such as guard rails, handwheels, catwalks, brake equipment and buffers, as well as a precision moulded bodyshell, it carries number DB980100. 

A mainstay of engineering trains for many years, these ballast wagons would transport and deposit fresh ballast on top of newly laid track via the chute located between the bogies, and could be seen operating with a huge variety of locomotive traction over their lifetime – from BR Blue diesels in the 70’s, to Civil Engineers ‘Dutch’ 31, 37 & 47s in the 90’s, and finally Class 66s in the privatised era. 

These ‘fishy’ wagons are sure to be a staple of your TT:120 wagon pool for many years to come!

History:

During the 1990s, the vacuum braked ‘Sealion’ wagons had their vacuum brake cylinders removed. Those that had their vacuum brake through pipes retained were reclassified as YGB ‘Seacow’ wagons. The names ‘Sealion’ and ‘Seacow’ reflect BR’s convention of naming its engineering vehicles after marine wildlife.
