Fran If Accurascale move at medium pace and produce their own 59, you should still beat Dapol to deliver the goods! Only funny because it’s true. I’m looking forward to the CDA’s Fran. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purnu Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Browsing a well known Flickr account these 2 variations caught my eye. I’m fairly sure I saw the EWS variant only once but I’ve never seen a coalfish that looked like that. Was it just a one off prototype? (I did try to add these images with a link to the original site but for reasons unknown I was unable to.) 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purnu Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Without wanting to bore everyone you can also add HBA 368113 to the list of wagons that had Loadhaul orange painted cradles. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hippel Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I notice the wagons in that video were opened manually. Was that normal? Wasn't there any automatic door opening equipment at Ironbridge? Paul. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steadfast Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 One from yesterday, fancy a blue 66 on your Coalfish? Bristol Blue: No not the glass! DB's Maritime blue livery 66047 'Maritime Intermodal Two' sits in Westbury Down Yard with 40 empty Coalfish in tow, ready to go as 6W50 to Bristol West Junction. This was just one of many trains involved in the relaying work at Bristol East. Picture linked from Flickr if you want to see it big and count the little fishies!

Graholm34040 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Found this image of a well loaded MHA near Avonmouth in 2018. Plenty of vegetation growing in it. This wagon does not have the pipe(s) running along the sole bar. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why that was. I always liked them, mind you I've only seen a couple at work! I guess they're not as noisy as a 56. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
