Detailed model of the BR engineers Turbot bogie ballast wagons. These wagons were converted from the vacuum braked bogie bolster E wagons, displaced from steel traffic by air braked wagons, to replace the large fleet of unfitted wagons still being operated by the BR engineering departments. A body with fixed ends and drop sides was fitted to the former bolster wagons making them useful for many roles as general material carriers and for conveying worn ballast away from track relaying projects.
Model finished in BR engineers grey and yellow 'Dutch' livery.

A new model of the GWR diagram AA20 goods train brake van, coded Toad, which was introduced in 1934.
This Rapido Trains model has been designed using works drawings and incorporates a number of different optional fittings to replicate variations between individual vehicles including different roof rain strips, different height footboards and different wheelsets. The model includes a full interior alongside a removable roof.
The requirement for brakevans on fully-fitted trains ended in 1968 but that didn’t mean the end of the ‘Toads’. Many were adopted by the engineering departments who found the plate-sided verandah ideal for transporting tools, while the cabin made an ideal mess van. A large number of GWR ‘Toads’ including several AA20s have been preserved.

New model of the LMS standard wood construction 5 plank open general merchandise wagons to diagram 1666. Developed from the Midland Railway designs updated to the 1923 RCH wagon specifications an entire assembly line was put together to build these wagons, with 54,450 completed between 1923 and 1930. For perspective, this one wagon design was more numerous than the entire Southern Railway wagon fleet, making this one of the most common open merchandise wagons on the British railway network by the 1930s. The vast majority of these wagons would still have been in service at nationalisation and would have been is use until substantial numbers of newer BR standard design wagons were available to begin replacing them in the late 1950s.

In 1912 the GWR standardised the twin-bonnet pattern end for their ventilated box vans which continued until after nationalisation. The first vans with the revised end were given diagrams V14 for vans with vacuum train brakes for express goods trains and V16 for the unfitted version. 5,506 'fitted vans were built along with 2,759 unfitted before the underframe was changed to a 10-feet wheelbase in the mid-1920s. The majority of these vans remained in service at nationalisation, though their older 9-feet wheelbase chassis demoted them from express goods service.
This model replicates vacuum train brake fitted diagram V14 van DW150066 in British Railways engineering department red livery lettered for service as a breakdown train packing van, conveying plates and timbers used to ensure crane stabilisers are properly supported and securely prop derailed vehicles between lifts.

In May 1918 an order was issued to convert 300 GWR diagram V16 vacuum brake fitted MINK A ventilated box vans to insulated meat vans as a wartime measure. By 1922 refrigerated ships were bringing large volumes of 'green' bananas. 258 of the insulated vans were reconverted with steam warming apparatus added to ripen the bananas as they travelled to market.
This van is finished as British Railways W93370 in the bauxite livery applied by BR to identify vacuum train brake fitted wagons.

Detailed model of the BR SPA low-sided, air-braked steel carrier wagon in use by the engineers departments as a materials carrier and coded ZAA PIKE and painted in the engineers grey and yellow Dutch livery.

As part of the development of the long wheelbase air braked wagons intended for fast goods trains a flat bed stake sided steel carrier wagon was produced. This proved ill-suited for many steel products, so following trials with a low-sided body 1,1000 SPA wagons were built. These have low, steel drop-door side bodies able to retain coiled products like rod/wire and featured floor bolsters suitable for loading and unloading by fork-lift truck.
As with many of the air-braked wagons there have been many subsequent modifications, both for revenue and departmental uses.

This 6 Wheeled Coach is a representation of the many small coaches which survived into British Railway ownership. Small coaches such as these proved especially adept at branch line work, where their small size enabled the traversing of tight radius curves, the ability to be hauled by smaller engines, and they were more acceptable to lower passenger numbers. The Tool Van served as a vital addition to many trains, carrying the important tools required for proper maintenance and repair.

This crane, as preserved at the One:One collection in Margate was built for the LNER as number 941599, then rated at 45 tonnes. On entry to BR service the crane would be renumbered multiple times as could be common for departmental rolling stock, first to 330110, then ADRC95218. 

Following a conversion from steam to diesel the crane would re-enter service as ADRC96719. Now rated at 50 tonnes, the crane is preserved and will be on display to the public when the museum opens.

The Hornby crane model includes the supporting trucks as well as a fully posable crane boom and hook, allowing the crane to be posed as if it were rescuing a stricken locomotive.

British Railways Grampus wagons are the standard design of 20-ton steel bodied open wagon built for the engineering departments. Generally referred to as ballast wagons the Grampus design was developed from designs by the pre-nationalisation companies, the BR design incorporating removable end panels which make the Grampus useful for carrying exceptionally long loads like crossing timbers and signal posts in addition to the traditional role as ballast carriers. The wagons have had very long lives, many still being found in the 1980s being utilised as general material carriers, loaded with absolutely anything the engineers needed and sometimes resembling mobile rubbish bins.

The Dapol model nicely recreates this very common wagon type, this model painted in the original black livery can be used right through the wagons life, as many seem to have never been repainted!

These distinctive vans were heavily influenced by Midland Railway practice, as adapted to the more flexible dual-veranda design introduced in 1910. The SECR built 50 new vans to this design and 25 older single-veranda vans were rebuilt, with detail differences between the original and new ends. Both types have been tooled. Examples survived into British Railways ownership, with at least 1 survivor on the Kent & East Sussex Railway.

A British Rail 6 Wheel Coach converted and used as a power source, a Generator Coach is an innovative and curious device serving in a capacity far different from the typical expectation of a coach simply to carry. While British Rail's standardised coaches with their simple and direct marks have dominated the InterCity lines for decades, many different services are provided including the typical purposes of coaches and railway transport.

In lines where a pantograph was not freely available to power electric trains, a power outage appears unexpectedly or even a hotel or other building required electricity; the Generator Coach was an emergency tool at hand.

The breakdown crane is as much a part of railway infrastructure as much as it is a wagon. Such cranes began to appear in 1875, growing in size and complexity. 

Over 176 cranes have appeared around the UK since their introduction, with the most modern cranes able to lift entire locomotives off the ground. Being the national operator from 1948 BR inherited a patchwork of rolling stock from its constituent companies, as they had done twenty five years earlier, including all breakdown cranes in service.

BR employed some of the largest rail cranes, with the heaviest of the lot designed for the heaviest of tasks, such as the re-railing of locomotives, or tasks that may see a locomotive needing to be removed from the track all together

Following the improvements in production through the 20th century the standard length of rails increased from 45 feet to 60 feet. Now longer than the standard 45-feet bogie bolsters like the GWR Macaw B new 65-feet length rail carrier wagons were built.
The LMS developed bogie flat wagon, designed for use with bolsters for rail or as a flat deck wagon for track panels, was adopted as a standard type by British Railways and allocated the code name Salmon. 894 were constructed between 1949 and 1961 in 15 batches from private wagon builders as well as BR workshops. A great variety of modifications were made over the lives of these wagons, with over 400 being overhauled during the 1980s, receiving modern bogies and train air brakes. Many of these wagons were formed into continuous welded rail trains, while others were fitted with rail cranes to aid handling of jointed rails at relaying sites.
The Hornby Salmon range is a new tooling for 2023 with almost all variants of the wagon catered for. Fitted with diecast chassis, these wagons have fantastic weight that rolls freely on metal wheels. Bolsters are included in the accessory bag can be fitted to represent the different ways these wagons would have appeared.

YMA Salmons were the result of a BR rebuild, with wagons entering the workshops then leaving with shiny new air brakes. The fitment of these brakes allowed the wagons to be run in larger consists and also allowed for the removal of the rear coupled brake van, therefore reducing the staff required for a freight service.

The ZBA 'Rudd' is a type of low sided open wagon rebuilt from an older HTV type of coal hopper. This rebuild was done on behalf of the BR Civil Engineering department, the department responsible for maintaining the trackwork of the UK.

The ZBA was the most extreme of these rebuilt wagons with an entirely new body fitted as opposed to having the original one cut down. The first of these rebuilds began appearing in 1984, with the wagons becoming the longest lasting type. ZBA wagons saw their withdrawal come thick and fast around 2008, with their use diminished by advancements in wagon design in the 30 years they were in service.

An iron ore tippler wagon was an all-steel mineral wagon that did not have doors. Each wagon featured heavier axleboxes for carrying iron ore. The wagons could be turned over for unloading at its destination, the steelworks.
After these small capacity wagons were replaced with more modern rolling stock many of these vacuum brake fitted iron ore tippler wagons were taken over by the BR engineering departments for use as spoil carrier. TOPS coded ZKV these wagons were given the codeword Zander in the 'fishkind' series used for engineering wagons. This model comes in a bauxite livery with black patches applied to take the new lettering.
