Quality Wagon Kits and Accessories by QUALITY WAGON KITS M ODELS AND ACCESSORIES Truly authentic models for your OO, O or N Gauge Model Railway Part of the family by M S BUILDING A OO GAUGE WAGON KIT ODEL The Parkside Models kit for the ubiquitous BR 16T Mineral Wagon (ref.PC21) presents a very straightforward kit-building exercise, ideal as a first rolling stock construction project. This example has been finished with transfers from the Modelmaster Decals range and weathered using acrylic paints and Humbrol weathering powders.

Some kits also feature etched parts for brake gear components and lengths of brass wire to form handrails. The basic principles of building one of these kits are the same as for 4mm versions, but there are a few aspects of construction that are expanded upon in the following step by step sequence. The featured kit is an LMS 20T Goods Brake Van (ref.PS111). STEP 1 STEP 2 Because this model has Following assembly of the handrails, the sides need sides, ends and floor, the preparing prior to assembling couplings can then be added to the body; the holes for the the headstocks.

To fit the coupling, the hook was inserted through the headstock and the spring slotted over from the back. Whilst compressing the spring STEP 3 against the back of the headstock, the ‘tails’ of the hook were bent at opposing right angles to lock the coupling in place. The axleboxes are separate units that are designed to float vertically within the W-irons, STEP 4 intended to offer a degree of The wheelsets are fitted compensation when running with the axleboxes held over uneven trackwork.

Self-adhesive type transfers are supplied in the 7mm range kits, which cover pre-grouping, post-grouping and post-nationalisation eras as appropriate, with a selection of numbers for each. Each transfer is cut round (through the tissue only and not the backing paper) and then picked up and placed in position with tweezers. It is then pressed down on the body before soaking with water. This separates the tissue from the transfer which can then be lifted clear, as illustrated. A pass of matt varnish from an aerosol helps to fix the transfers in place and protect them from handling. Weathering can be undertaken if desired; weathering powders were used on this model. Building a Parkside Models kit can be a very satisfying and rewarding exercise. And with such a wide variety of kits available you will be sure to be able to add new stock to your railway that cannot be found from the ready-to-run manufacturers.

  • Level Crossing Accident at Penrhyn, Ffestiniog Railway, 6 January 2019 Important Safety Messages
    Level crossing accident at Penrhyn, Ffestiniog Railway, 6 January 2019 Important safety messages • This accident serves as a reminder of why it is important to follow railway rules and operating instructions. Many rules have developed from the experience of past accidents and incidents. The reason why a rule exists is not always obvious, and may have been forgotten as time passes, but the importance of complying with it does not diminish. • The consequences of a train running onto a level crossing into the path of a road vehicle can be fatal; ensuring trains stop at a ‘Stop’ board placed at a safe distance from a level crossing open to road traffic is a sensible and realistic precaution against inadvertent overruns. • It is also important that organisations have measures in place to assure themselves that rules and instructions are being followed, rather than allowing unsafe ‘custom and practice’ to develop. Summary of the accident On Sunday 6 January 2019 at around 16:30 hrs, an engineering train returning from Tan y Bwlch to Minffordd did not stop as it approached the level crossing at Penrhyn. The gates were closed across the railway, and the train struck the upper gate and pushed through it, coming to a stand part way across the crossing, fouling both carriageways of the road, the A4085. There were no injuries, and minor damage was caused to the crossing gates on the Tan y Bwlch side of the crossing. On applying the locomotive brakes with the intention of stopping short of the gate, the driver realised that the locomotive wheels had locked and that the train was continuing to move down the 1 in 80 gradient.

  • Operational Rail Vehicle Strategy 2019-2034 Operational Rail Vehicle Strategy 2019-2034
    OPERATIONAL RAIL VEHICLE STRATEGY 2019-2034 OPERATIONAL RAIL VEHICLE STRATEGY 2019-2034 INTRODUCTION The Science Museum Group (SMG) through the National Railway Museum (NRM) owns the largest fleet of operating historic locomotives in the United Kingdom, so it’s essential that we have a strategy to ensure the most effective and efficient use of these vehicles. The NRM, Locomotion and Science & Industry Museum in Manchester (SIM) will continue to operate a select number of rail vehicles from our collection. Showing our collections in action is one of the most direct tools we have to share our key values with visitors: revealing wonder, igniting curiosity and sharing authentic stories. What’s more, our visitors expect a train ride. We need to meet that expectation whilst managing our collection in the most professional and responsible manner. A commercially viable and deliverable plan will see a core selection of operating vehicles at York and Locomotion within the maintenance capabilities of teams at those locations. These have been chosen for reasons of accessibility, affordability, income potential, attractiveness to visitors, practicality of operation and sustainable repair as well as the railway stories they reveal. We use our rail vehicles in various ways with priority always given for static display for our visitors at York and Shildon. Other ways in which we use them are: operation on museum sites; static loans to accredited museums; operating loans to heritage railways; main line operation. Our loans reach diverse audiences across the UK, making the national collection accessible to many. These vehicles are brand ambassadors for our mission of inspiring future engineers and scientists.

  • Types of Rolling Stock
    CLASSIFICATION & NOMENCLATURE OF COACHING STOCK ROLLING STOCK Rolling stock comprises all the vehicles that move on a railway. It usually includes both powered and unpowered vehicles, for example locomotives, railroad cars, coaches and wagons. However, in some countries (like UK), the term is usually used to refer only to non-powered vehicles; specifically excluding locomotives which may be referred to as running stock, traction or motive power. CLASSIFICATION OF ROLLING STOCK Rolling stock are classified into following two groups, according to the availability of power source to move on the track SELF-PROPELLED VEHICLE: These are railway vehicles that do not require a separate power source to move over the railway track. For example- Locomotives, Rail Cars, Electrical multiple Units (EMUs), Diesel Multiple units (DMUs) Diesel Breakdown Cranes, Motor trolleys etc. NON SELF-PROPELLED VEHICLE: These are railway vehicles that need a separate power source like locomotives to move over the railway track. For example- Coaching Stock and Freight Stock FUNCTION OF ROLLING STOCK ❖ Locomotives: These are source of power used to haul a train, a coach or a wagon etc. ❖ Coaching stock: Coaching stocks are used for transporting passengers. ❖ Freight Stock: Freight Stocks (Wagon) are used mainly for transporting goods and live stocks etc. ❖ Diesel/ Steam Break down Crane: These are rail mobile cranes used in case of railway accident for lifting loads, derailed wagon or coaches. Diesel/ Steam Break down Crane are part of accident relief trains which are used for rescue & restoration operation. ❖ Motor trolleys: These are used for inspection of railway track by staff of engineering department.
