Rapido say "The new Rapido Trains UK OO Gauge RCH 1907 Private Owner Salt Van will have the usual wealth of full external and underframe detail. This includes ribbed or smooth-tapered buffers and single or double-sided brakes. There are then 5 axle box variants within the range; these are square, rounded, Ellis grease, Oil 116, or RCH split oil designs. All versions are fitted with brass bearings for smooth friction-free running, split-spoked wheels, NEM coupling pockets and have a high-quality livery application. We have included a selection of interesting liveries that cover numerous private companies. Many of the liveries in the salt van range would have been seen across the country and throughout the grouping and pre-grouping eras; there is a suitable version for everyone's collection."
