C77 SECR 2 plank Ballast Wagon (D1344)

120 of these were built between 1919 and 1923. The kit has extra parts to fit along the edge of the floor for the "as built" overhanging floor wagons (Left-hand picture). A wagon of this type is being re-created on a 7 plank wagon underframe on the Bluebell Railway.

In later years they were seen all over the Southern Railway/Region system, some wagons lasting until the early 1970s. A few ended up on the Western Region, when in a ridiculous moving of Region boundaries, the western end of the Salisbury - Exeter line became part of the Western Region, putting the Broadclyst PW depôt over the border, together with its wagons (smaller picture).

There is a SR transfer pack for this kit see CMR077-SR in the transfers section.

We stock wheels for this kit in OO, EM and P4/S4.
