Manufacturer description

Box vans were the workhorses of the early freight industry, moving general merchandise and perishable goods and thousands were built over several designs and over a large time period.

The Southern Railway style box van had distinctive vents and a wrap over roof profile. It was built at Ashford during the years of the World War II and vans were sold to other rail operators such as GWR and LMS. The wagon continued into service into the 1960s under BR.

The Dapol Box Van SR 44630 is a model of a Southern Railway-style box van. It is designed for use with OO gauge model railways and features a weathered finish, representing the worn appearance of a van that has seen regular use.

The model is based on the distinctive design of the Southern Railway's box vans, which were characterised by their vents and wrap-over roof profile. These vans were built at Ashford during the 1930s and were used to transport general merchandise and perishable goods. Many were sold to other railway companies, including the GWR and LMS, and continued in service into the 1960s under British Railways.

The model features a number of details, including profiled wheels, fine printed livery, a highly detailed moulded body, and NEM pockets with self-centring couplings. The measurements of the model are: length over buffer 82mm, width 33mm, and height 48mm.
