Prototype information

The Rapido LB&SCR Dia.8 Van, specifically No.8095, is a model train item offered as part of the LB&SCR Dia.8 Van collection. The model is designed for use on OO gauge track and represents a railway vehicle from the pre-grouping period.

This particular model is based on the LBSC Diagram 8 Van, which was painted in LBSC grey livery from 1911. The model features single-sided brakes with double V-hangers and is an unfitted vehicle, meaning it does not have a bogie or other equipment for carrying goods. The wheels are 9-spoked and run on metal bearings.

The model boasts a high level of detail, both above and below the floor line, and features a high-quality livery application. It also includes NEM coupler pockets, allowing for easy connection to other model trains. The model is available in 1:76 scale, making it suitable for OO gauge railway layouts.
