Model details

Prototype information

Accurascale BR 24.5‑ton HOP24/HUO coal hopper is a three‑wagon pack modelled in OO gauge. The wagons are painted in BR grey with a pristine finish and carry the real running numbers B333837, B333905 and B334176. They are fitted with NEM standard coupler pockets and narrow tension‑lock couplers, and feature metal three‑hole disc wheels on metal axles.

The model represents British Rail hopper wagons built between 1954 and 1963, in the British Rail Blue (TOPS) era. Each wagon has the manufacturer part number ACC1012‑HUO‑G, a 4‑wheel arrangement and a minimum curve radius of 1 unit. Detail includes RP25.110 darkened profile sets with 14.4 mm back‑to‑backs, 26 mm over pinpoints, extra‑fine factory‑fitted plastic parts, sprung buffers and individual lettering and codes taken from the original wagons. The kit is designed for easy conversion to P4 and EM gauges.

Only 250 packs of this three‑wagon set were produced, making it a very limited release. The pack includes three wagons, each with its own number, and provides the components needed for a fully detailed and operational representation of the BR 24.5‑ton hopper in OO gauge.
