DiveController Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Just trying to remember what the various Y33 colour bogies would be suitable for? Obviously 42' flats, black on ammonia? What else had y33s? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timber wagons, 47 ft flats, CPWs too I think? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Dangerous Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Outstanding news! I can see a lot of Christmas stockings being filled with those... Unless you have some buses or trucks to announce this side of Christmas! Did the Ammonias run on black Y33's? Would the red or brown work for people who bought Spoil wagons to de-spoil for their C-Rail containers, but want something pre-black bogie era? I'm sure that @jhb171achill posted somewhere that black bogies on the flats are only around since the early 2010's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, DJ. Completely brown from the very start of bogie wagons, except Taras (blue, like body), Ammonias (dark green like lower body) and shale in original duck-egg blue livery - black bogies. The brown with little black fiddly bits in them is recent; the black with little blue, green or yellow fiddly bits is even more recent. Fertilisers, for example, all brown. Current timber wagons, multicoloured. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Shrives Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Hi , First packs came a few days ago, stout box and well packed. Good to know you have plenty as these are the obvious basis for many wagons. Hopefully the smaller suppliers can get a trade offer so they can be enclosed in future kits - I guess it might need work to alter current designs to take the design of retainer over the good old 10 ba bolt. thanks Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
