About this Vehicle:

The GNR had several types of brake van. The brake van type that this model represents is the twenty ton, 6 wheeled version with horizontal planking. This vehicle was mainly used for heavy goods and mineral traffic.

These brake vans have been described in books (e.g. 19th Century Railway Drawings by A. Prior, and LNER Wagons by P. Tatlow)  and the Model Railway press (Especially an article in  "Model Railway News" December 1967). A representative model will enhance any model railway based on the GNR or its former geographical area.
