NCB Brakevans

[Gordon A]

If someone was to point me to a supplier for the axle boxes and springs, MJT maybe and buffers this would speed things up. Something I can quietly draw up in the evening on the computer. In theory some elements from my LT may well lend a hand in the design to speed things up.

 

Hello Robert,

 

Have you made any moves on the 8 wheeled NCB brake van?

Hi Gordon,

 

sorry I missed this post.

 

I went to draw up the brake van this month with other stuff but cannot find the scale drawing anywhere.

Glad I found this post, I'm starting an O gauge Slaters LMS van based on the Comrie colliery one posted on here a long time ago, the real one now resides at Bo'ness.

On my thread The Lillershall Co, PGH of this Parish posted photos of the 2 ex Cannock and Rugeley Colliery Brake vans that were used at Grabville Colliery (ex Lilleshall Co) which I am re posting on this thread.

One of these vans is now at Thee Telford Trust site.

 

I dont know the origin of these vehicles or when they arrived at Granville.

interesting to see that you've spliced some new timber into the end. A friend of mine has a wooden framed wagon at Foxfield that will need extensive repairs and he's thinking of doing something like this. We may have to pay a visit to see how you went about it.
