I think that any of those three brake vans will be spot on.

In your scenario the two, three, four milk tanks are being conveyed from a branch line setting to a main line station where they will be added to a full train of tankers heading for, as an example, London.

That was the case on the GWR/WR with trains starting at Penzance with maybe three tanks then picking up extras through Cornwall and Devon until they had maybe 12-15 heading onwards.
Those main line trains, running at express speeds, would have the full brake in the consist usually at the rear but not always.

By the way, those milk tanks were always externally filthy but spotless internally.

Here's how I run mine :



By the way a Siphon G, conveying churns, would also look good.

Lucky you , I've been trying for a few years to get the Class 22 at a reasonable price. Some are now selling for over the £100 marK.

Enjoy the model and I'll follow this thread with interest.

Hi All,

I would just like to ask a couple of questions about making up trains with this lovely little loco  :D

I have crewearpley40 staying with me at the moment so that will be useful, but I thought I would ask generaly  :D  :thumbsup:  :D

It looks great with a marroon B set



And also with mixed freight



I just need to know what brake van would go best  :hmmm:



Also I want to make up a milk train. Reading another thread, it seems the silver tankers suit the baby warship, and the white ones are best suited for steam



I don't think I could use any of those 3 brake vans, but I have a marroon hawksworth full brake I could use  :hmmm:

Chris reccomends a stove r van. The only one I can find is this on Ebay

Would this livery be ok considering I will have Chocolate and Cream running at the same time. I have seen rakes of coaches made up of all sorts of liveries  :hmmm:

Thank you in advance

All best wishes

Kevin

Great fun Scott.

A talented lyricist even if you aren't a musician.

Only 24 degrees here today (75F) with a refreshing breeze.

Look I have two class 17s and three class 28s. None operated on the Southern. What would I do with a class 76 or two (I mean you gotta have a pair) ???
