Ready to Run Wagons

British Railways Standard 20 Ton Brake Van

The original batch of the Dapol 20ton brake vans wagons has now completely sold out. The original batch were Diagrams 1/504 (vacuum through piped) and 1/506 (Unfitted) manufactured between 1951 and 1957 totalling some 2,300 vehicles.

No BR era layout would be complete without a couple of these vehicles and they will be the ideal companion to many of the wagons and locomotives currently out there.

Dapol have now announced a re-run of the BR brake vans covering the later batches of Diagrams 1/506 and 1/507 totalling 1,830 units, these having roller bearing axle boxes in place of the oil type and Oleo self contained buffers. The first shots showing the new tooling modifications are pictured above.

The brake van will feature:

  • ABS body
  • Die cast chassis for added weight.
  • A compensation beam to improve running qualities (standard to all later Dapol designed wagons)
  • Sprung metal oleo buffers
  • Sprung metal couplings either instanter link or screw type where applicable
  • Die-cast wheels with steel tyres
  • Pin-point brass bearings
  • We are also considering including the option of interior lighting and sound.

This re-run of the BR Brake vans is now available.
