Bachmann 37-065 00 Gauge Writhlington, Kilmersdon & Foxcote Collieries 5-Plank Open Wagon
A nicely detailed model of a 5 plank open coal wagon operated by the Radstock, North Somerset colliery group comprising the Writhlington, Kilmersdon and Foxcote collieries. This wagon has a large letter W on the door, believed to indicate the wagon should be returned empty to the Writhlington colliery yard.
Radstock was served by the Great Western and Somerset & Dorset (Midland/LMS & LSWR/SR) railways, providing the colliery companies with direct access to a wide range of market destinations.
