C114 BR Bolster D VB- BR roller bearing Plate bogies

BR Bolster D built to D1/478 with roller bearing plate bogies, and handwheels for manual braking. 200 of these wagons were built at Lancing in 1959-60. About 15 of these wagons were "converted" in the mid-60s to carry coils from Corby and possibly other steel mills. This was only a minor alteration using timber to position the coils. Later, a number (7+) were used for overhead electrification work, with "DofM&EE. BRB. HQ. ELECTRIFICATION" in large lettering along the sides. These were air-piped and had the TOPS code YYW.

We stock wheels for this kit in OO, EM and P4/S4. Please note that as it is a bogie wagon you will require 2 sets.
