Rapido Trains UK announce LMS D1832A and D1663 12-Ton Vans in 00 Gauge
Production of the 9ft wheelbase Dia.1663 12-Ton Vans began in 1924, and 850 wagons were produced over 2 years. The Dia.1663 vans featured a sliding door, corrugated steel ends, and external steel cross braces at one end to facilitate the clearance of the sliding doors.
Much like their earlier counterparts, the Dia.1832A 12-ton vans had the same sliding door, 9ft wheelbase, corrugated steel end, and cross-brace design, however, they also featured a single ventilator bonnet at either end. This later diagram clearly refined the design as a whopping 3,450 vans were built between 1929 and 1931.
Surviving into the late years of Nationalisation, both the LMS D1832A and D1663 12-Ton Vans could be found up and down the country, some still soldiered on in departmental use way into the 1970s.
The Rapido Trains UK LMS D1832A and D1663 12-Ton Vans will feature the usual wealth of detail, including separately fitted parts such as grab handles, full external and underframe details, brass bearings for smooth friction-free running, NEM coupling pockets and a high-quality livery application.
