Oxford Rail has advised that additional quantities of its forthcoming Totem Wagons and GER 10T Wagons may become limited, with further supplies subject to availability once initial allocations have been confirmed. The Totem is an especially distinctive model, based on the Great Western Railway’s short 25ft 1in armour-plate bogie wagons built for carrying exceptionally heavy industrial loads such as large cast-iron components. With a prototype capacity of 45 tons, later increased to 50 tons, these unusual wagons make an eye-catching addition to goods traffic on a period OO Gauge layout.
The new GER 10T wagons provide another interesting option for freight formations. The prototype cattle vans were built by the Great Eastern Railway in substantial numbers between 1900 and 1909 to transport livestock to and from East Anglia, although examples travelled much further across the railway network. With both ranges offering something a little different from the more familiar everyday goods wagon, we recommend ordering early if you would like to add them to your collection, as later availability cannot be guaranteed.
