UTA Railcar No. 6 & 7

[Kirley]

After the AEC Railcars the UTA developed their own version in the form of Railcar No. 6 & 7 which became the forerunners of the MED’s, see Colm Flanagan’s excellent book ‘Diesel Dawn’ which denotes a chapter to their development.

 

 

Allen Doherty (Worsley Works) agreed to do etches for these Railcars and they arrived this morning.

 

 

Hope to get started in a couple of months once I've cleared the backlog of 'things to do'.

The etches look good Kieran,look forward to seeing your build of this iconic railcar. Is Allen going to be making it available on his site?

 

Great pic of the railcar in my old stomping ground!!
