Details

These short wheelbase vans were used for transporting perishable goods such as fruit, meat and fish. To keep their contents fresh during transit, the vans were insulated and loaded with ice, helping to maintain a low temperature throughout the journey. Their compact, robust design made them ideal for use on branch lines and local deliveries, ensuring delicate cargo reached markets safely. These vans were a vital part of Britain’s refrigerated rail freight operations and remain a popular subject for historical and model railway collections.
