BMT / BHG Samples

Recently we received the engineering samples of our first Brake Van and some improved BMT milk tank samples.  

We are producing two versions of BMT bodywork, as delivered and with the later bracing style.  

Our Brake Van covers three versions of the 30’ Drovers van: LHG (Lavatory), SHG and BHG.

TE  Flat Wagon

The TE project is on the water and will arrive early February.

Tank Cars:

 Due to popular demand we have re-run the AMPOL and Freight Australia Fuel Block Trains, as well as the VTQF and ATBL models.  

 We also took the opportunity to commission a second 6 pack of AMPOL cars and a new triple pack of the ABTL cars.

 These models will arrive late February.

Another re-run of OCYs, our new RQBYs, a big project and some long awaited containers.

OCY / RQBY Container Wagons

We have received another shipment of OCY / NQOY wagons. We’ve added the second contract Commonwealth Engineering cars (15001 to 15070) with two new OCY Indian Red packs and two new NQOY Road Grime packs

We have our new RQBY / RQSY wagons in National Rail and Pacific National colours along with our original NQOY wagons in Pacific National colours

 and dedicated Intrastate wagons with 3 piece bogies in NQOF Road Grime and NQPY for SUNRICE traffic

 Due to rising production costs in China we’ve had a modest increase in prices for our 63’ container wagons.

JCW / NQJW / RQJW

 We received the first engineering samples of our ‘big project’. These 80’ container wagons were built by Mittagong Engineering in 1974-75 and are in the 22033 to 22082 series. They are designed to carry 20’, 37’ and 40’ containers.

SRC / QRC and LRC RACE containers

 We also received our long awaited refrigerated RACE container samples. The SRC/QRC are 25’ long and were usually conveyed in pairs on 63’ container wagons, the LRC is 40’ long and was usually conveyed on 45’ container wagons.

NSWR 70s Rail Tank Cars

 The 1970s Rail Tank Cars are now in stock together with new single packs for BP and Ampol.

NSWR 1960s, 1980s and Block Train RTCs

 Our 1960s and 1980s triple packs leave Hong Kong this week and will arrive at Port Botany just after the exhibition, the Block Train Ampol and Freight Australia cars are now being assembled and will leave China mid-October. By mid-November we’ll have completed our original advertised Rail Tank Car program.

Victorian Railways M Cattle Wagon

 Our Victorian Railways M cattle wagons are back in stock a new production run arrived with the 1970s RTCs, whilst the first series had some wheel issues these new models are wobble free.

BCW Cattle wagons

 Once we announced the arrival of our BCW wagons it became apparent that the level of stock we had of the original three letter coded cars was insufficient, fortunately the factory had moulded extra chassis parts for the FMW program. We requested a short run of BCW to be completed alongside the FMW assembly, coincidently we had also commenced discussions with our vendor regarding the feasibility of “factory weathering” for an upcoming timber bodied wagon project. The factory demonstrated their interpretation on some BCW wagons and we think the results are exceptional. If all goes according to plan we’ll have a series of lightly weathered BCW wagons at Liverpool, rrp $180.00 per pack.
