GWR 12Ton Covered Goods Van

By BrickBuiltBench

A common sight across the GWR is the covered goods van. This model is a 1:42 scale, 12Ton covered goods van commonly referred to as a 12Ton ‘MINK’ after the GWR telegraph code.

This model could also be easily modified to serve as a ‘MOGO’ which had doors at the front and rear for the purpose of carrying a single motor car.

This model is designed to run on a minimum R72 radius, but by switching the 2×14 plate for a 2×16 you can increase the spacing of the coupling enabling lower radius curves.
