GWR 10t Loco Coal Wagon (Dia.N30) – OO unpainted plastic kit

Require glue, paint, transfers, couplings, wheels (Gibson 12mm & brass bearings) to complete.

The final GWR design for small loco coal wagons introduced in 1935. Over 200 were built.
This type of wagon would have been used to supply coal to small, e.g. Moretonhampstead; or medium-sized depôts, e.g. Aberystwyth. One of these would carry enough coal to last about three days in a small pannier tank loco. At less well equipped locations, the coal may have actually been used from the wagon, although most places probably had some kind of hoist to lift coal from a pile on the ground in a bucket.
