Manufacturer description

Built by Powell and Duffryn these high capacity wagons were originally bought by ARC and wore the distinctive ARC livery but have since changed to wearing Hanson’s livery. They have on occasion also been seen sporting plain grey to hide graffiti

The fleet is noticeable for its use of distinctive inside bearing TF1 low track force bogies. There are a few variants of the hopper. The outer hoppers are numbered 17xxx and the inner hoppers are numbered 19xxx. Only the most distal end of the outer hoppers are fitted with buffers, all wagons are fitted with buckeye couplings.

The Dapol P & D JHA (middle hopper) ARC Olive & Grey model is a representation of a type of freight wagon used by ARC, a British mineral haulage company. The model is based on a real-life wagon built by Powell Duffryn between 1990 and 1991.

The model is available in two versions: an inner wagon and an outer wagon. The inner wagon has buckeye couplings and is not fitted with buffers, while the outer wagon has sprung buffers, a standard OO model coupling with an NEM pocket, and buckeye couplings at the other end.

The model features a diecast chassis, profiled wheels, and a close coupling mechanism that allows it to operate on a minimum radius of 438mm. The outer wagon also features a working rear lamp that can be controlled using a 6-pin DCC socket. The model is designed from works drawings and includes a high level of detail, with many separately added parts.

The real-life P & D JHA hopper wagons were built by Powell and Duffryn and were originally used by ARC. They have since been seen wearing various liveries, including Hanson's and plain grey. The wagons are characterised by their distinctive inside bearing TF1 low track force bogies and are identifiable by their numbering, with outer hoppers numbered in the 17xxx series and inner hoppers numbered in the 19xxx series.
