Ellis Clark O Gauge Presflo Wagons

[DJ Dangerous]

Anybody tried out any of Ellis Clark’s O Gauge Presflo wagons?

A little birdie told me that they’re worth picking up.

Very nice looking wagons!

They appear to have been in use from the mid fifties until the mid eighties, so would look well behind a nice BR blue diesel.

OK, you've twisted my arm.

Lovely looking chassis on the Prestflo's!

We’ve made for a range of other companies at this stage, in all scales too but can’t obviously go into specifics.

Ah I only meant ECT like the WD etc but interesting.

The Presflo’s are now available from Rails of Sheffield, HERE.

Handy if you want to mix and match with something else.

I've got three from when they were first produced - they are indeed very nice. There are some subtle differences among the different models, such as the vacuum brake cylinder arrangements.

Very very nice wagon!

Very nice! You know what that needs - a Class 15 to pull it!

Or, since one if those would take months to get here…
