We are excited to present the new Bachmann Branchline model of the BR 12 Ton ‘Vanwide’ Ventilated Van, finished in BR Bauxite livery with TOPS code ‘VMV’ and a weathered finish. Not previously available in OO scale, this Branchline models depicts the ‘Vanwide’ ventilated vans which were built to provide a wider door opening that the standard BR vans of the time which had hinged doors – the wider opening allowing pallets to be loaded and unloaded. With a similar specification to the new Branchline VEA, the Vanwide is made from all-new tooling and raises the bar in terms of detail and fidelity when it comes to OO scale vans. The highly detailed body includes separate wire handrails, separate lamp irons & end boards, and two variations of door runner (smooth or ribbed), whilst the underframe is a work of art with separate components fitted to represent the air brake gear, turned metal buffers and optional brake hangers and ties.
