<h3>FX / VPFX Bulk Flour Wagon</h3><p>17 of these pneumatic discharge wagons were constructed between 1966 and 1971, they were numbered FX1 to 17. The first series FX 1 to 6 were built at Newport Workshops, the second series FX 7 to 17 were built at Ballarat North Workshops. The original series of wagons were designed so that two of the four hoppers were unloaded from each end. The second series differed from the first series by means of a single discharge point, via additional piping and manifold, at each end of the wagon. When the wagons were first delivered they were finished in silver with a small VR logo, later many of the series received flour company branding and some were also repainted white. Later their use was expanded to cover burnt lime (VPLX) and dried locomotive sand (VZGX).</p><p>Whilst coded FX denoting suitability for bogie exchange they were predominantly used on the broad gauge between Albury NSW and Williamstown Pier and Westall, in the mid-80s some ran on standard gauge to Enfield and Canberra.</p><h3>Model Features:</h3><ul> <li>Highly detailed Ready-to-Run HO scale model</li> <li>Injection moulded high quality plastic body</li> <li>Etched metal walkways</li> <li>Full brake rigging and underfloor detail</li> <li>Semi scale metal rimmed wheels</li> <li>Genuine Kadee #158 whisker coupler</li> <li>18” Minimum radius recommended</li> </ul>

<p>In-order to allow running at 125 mph on Britain's railways, new rolling stock was needed by British Railways. Significant improvements over the Mk2 included new secondary air suspension between the bogies and the coach body as well as aerodynamic skirting on the underframe. Mk3 coaches are 75ft (23m) long enabling far greater capacity than older coaches. Mk3 coaches also incorporate disk brakes and wheel slip protection enabling faster deceleration.</p> <p>The first Mk3 coaches to be delivered were used as part of the HST prototype along with the two Class 41 diesel power cars in 1972. Mk3 coaches entered service in 1975 along with the Class 43 forming the iconic InterCity 125 trainset.</p> <p>Following a period of unprofitable operations, the InterCity East Coast franchise passed from NXEC to East Coast, an operator owned by the Department for Transport. From the beginning of East Coast's operations, it was made clear that it was the DfT's intention was that the franchise be retendered in future years. To this end East Coast soon adopted a deliberately plain livery that would be easy for a new operator to re-brand. The franchise eventually passed to Virgin Trains East Coast in March 2015.</p> <h4>Includes</h4> <ul> <li>1x Rolling stock Coach</li> </ul> <h4>Technical Specifications</h4> <div> <ul> <li>Item Length - Without Packaging (cm): 30.3</li> <li>Item Height - Without Packaging (cm): 5</li> <li>Item Width - Without Packaging (cm): 3.5</li> <li>Item Weight - Without Packaging: 0.19</li> <li>Item Scale: 1:76 Scale 00 Gauge</li> <li>Finish: Painted</li> <li>Colour: Grey</li> <li>Operator: East Coast</li> <li>Designer: BREL</li> <li>Livery: East Coast Grey</li> <li>Minimum Curve (mm): Radius 2</li> <li>Number of Parts: 1</li> </ul> </div>

<p>The loading gauge on British railways could preclude the movement of tall goods on normal wagons. One solution to this was the lower the centre of the wagon so that the goods sat closer to the rail.
