Rapido Trains UK is adding three newly tooled versions to their 009 Gauge ‘All-Purpose’ Wagon range. These versions include a Wooden Coal Hopper, Rectangular Tank Wagon, and Round-Ended Flat Wagon.
Narrow gauge railways served an eclectic mix of industries, with their rolling stock being used for even more diverse purposes. These new versions offer more opportunities to run these unique trains by expanding your options of wagons even further.
The first new wagon type is the Wooden Coal Hopper. Transporting raw materials from the pit or quarry is always more economical if you can get more out in one go. With these deep wagons, your narrow gauge railway will soon be prosperous.
These wagons aren’t limited to the transport of coal, of course. A wide variety of materials like stone, sand, metals, slate, china clay, scrap, ash and even manure were transported in these types of wagons, so they are perfect for a huge number of layouts.
This ready-to-run model in 009 gauge is produced by Rapido Trains UK.
