4F-048-001 Dapol KQA/KTA Container Wagon Tiphook Blue 4907 033 1

by Dapol

Add To Comparison

Dapol say "During the 1990's the growing use of High Cube 9ft 6in tall containers was causing problems for freight operators transporting them on height restricted UK railway lines using standard intermodal flat bed wagons. The Tiphook approach to solve this problem was not the conventional solution of lowering the platform and using smaller wheels, instead they designed a latticed platform that sat low down, below the top level of the bogies and a pocket was formed with the slab sides that gave the wagon strength and rigidity. In total seventy five of these wagons were built by Rautaruuki in Finland. They were delivered in two batches between 1997 and 1998 and bore a blue Tiphook livery. We are pleased to now be able to supply the later TOUAX livery version of these wagons."
