Hornby R60290 BR - CAR B955167 - Brake Van
Scale 1:76, OO gauge
Until 1968, fully fitted freight trains were required by law to carry a brake van at the end. The brake van provided brake functionality to help slow the train and acted as a space where the train guard could carry out additional duties such as paperwork. As a result, most brake vans featured a stove and desk on top of the brake apparatus. This example of a British Rail brake van comes in an eye-catching BR green paint scheme.
