jwealleans Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 If anyone wants any modelling info on ferry wagons please PM me; I gathered up quite a bit for an ongoing project to build a rake. In the picture the two white ones are Belgian, the three to the right are German as is (I think) the one extreme left. The Belgians also had some wagons to this design.

jonhall Posted April 22, 2011 Author Share Posted April 22, 2011 Having just returned from Belgium and Germany, I think I spotted two more of these Belgian vans as I travelled, One is very close to Brussels Midi, and it breifly visible from Eurostar - I must have passed it dozens of times, but only just noticed it. Its right at the end of the Audi/VW sidings just opposite the Eurostar Thalys depot. The other is outside the control rooms at Charleroi yard.

jwealleans Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Have to differ, Jon; I think they're Italian vent vans of the type Roco made. Not unlike the second van here: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Neil Posted July 16, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 16, 2013 If you zoom into the photo, the roof shadow overhangs the far ends of the vans which suggests that they're of the type with the brakeman,s cabin, like the Italeri/TTM kit.
