Presenting - Accuraloads!

[Warbonnet]

We have now brought a number of wagons to market over the last couple of years. Many of these wagons have been open wagons which require a nice prototypical load to set them off nicely. We had previously done this with our HUO hoppers in OO, but it's about time we expanded the range. 

So, without further ado, welcome to our new Accuraloads range!

As well as a whole new batch of our extremely popular OO gauge HOP 24/ HUO coal loads, we are also releasing a series of loads for both our PFA coal container wagons and our PTA/JTA/JUA tippler wagons.

The PFA coal container loads are perfect for our Cawoods, British Fuel and the Rails of Sheffield CPL special edition packs of coal container wagons. Designed to fill the containers to the brim, they add that extra bit of detail to set these colourful wagons off nicely. Loads for our PFAs will be sold in packs of three, for £8.95

For our tippler wagons, we really have gone all out. We have developed four different loads to suit our wagons, depending on their use. Our British Steel tipplers carried a variety of loads, including the obligatory iron ore as well as limestone/dolofines and coal to the steelworks. We have recreated these loads to go with our immensely popular British Steel tippler packs. 

The iron ore and limestone trains formed part of some of the most iconic British freight trains of the 1970s and 1980s, featuring some fantastic traction and workings as can be seen in our formation guide, helping you select the right loads for your trains. Click here for a bigger version!

Of course, our tippler wagons are equally associated with Mendip stone trains, and these will also get their own hand-made loads, representing the aggregate carried in these wagons which once formed the heaviest trains to run in the UK.

The price for our tippler wagon loads is £16.95 for a pack of five, mirroring our wagon pack sizes. Our PFA, HUO and tippler wagon loads are all hand made, bringing that little extra bit of finesse and realism to your trains!  We also have steel coil loads arriving which will compliment our JSA steel wagons or other suitable ready-to-run or kit-built steel wagons, with a pack of six coils available for £8.95. 

This growing range now compliments our British Gypsum 20ft containers already on sale, with these new loads joining them in stock in January 2021! We will also have our beer kegs and palleted sacked goods loads back in stock in the spring, so watch out for them! Our tippler, HUO, PFA or steel coil loads are now available to pre-order.
