Title: Can you identify this wagon?
Post by: Ted on August 24, 2020, 11:40:18 AM
Hi guys,

I'm trying to identify what this is and also, whether or not Dapol, Farish or Peco make these wagons?

It's an RMC JGA. Farish do a variant, but not the right one. The NGS do a kit for one.

Thanks Nick, looks like I'll be building my first NGS kit!  :thumbsup:

edit: oh no I won't, for fu... out of stock. Like everything else I want.  :doh:

Worth signing up for alerts, they do come and go!

They run interchangeably with the Farish variant, plus this third type (with one of 'yours' in the background), for which no model is available AFAIK:

I didn't know there were alerts, I'll see if I can sign-up. I just emailed the NGS shop too.

Looks like an unusual model, nice change of style and colour so I'm keen to get some. Also a great weathering candidate!

Yes, Farish did a release of theirs in 'weathered' livery, but obviously that just meant a bit of brown splattering on it!

They are quite interesting, these days at least they run intermixed with all sorts - PGAs, HOAs, quite unusual in the day of block trains!
