A selection of ‘Slingers’.
KEEPING WITH THE bogie departmental vehicle theme, today’s update covers the mid-range of Jarvis Fastline ‘Slinger’ wagons, rebuilt from former ferry wagons at York C&W in the first half of this decade. Pictured below are seven twin-crane relaying vehicles and two generator wagons.
Nine more 40-tonne ballast hoppers for WotW.
ANOTHER MIXED BATCH of ‘Seacow’ and ‘Sealion’ 40-tonne ballast hoppers, this time photographed in 2005-06 - there’s even a ‘Stingray’ power wagon in there if you look closely!
First WotW update of 2009.
JUST A QUICKIE set of new images; twelve ‘Seacow’ and ‘Sealion’ 40-tonne ballast hoppers all recorded in 2004. Both rivetted and welded construction builds are included, just the thing for those with Bachmann and Hornby models that they are looking to detail and weather!
The oversized 20-2 tri-level autoracks illustrated.
FOR TODAY’S UPDATE, Wagons on the Web’s attention moves to the massive 20-2 tri-level autoracks that can be found plying North American rails. Never as common as their normal-sized counterparts, they can make for a striking sight when marshalled within a rake of standard height racks.
Another 20 engineer’s wagons of various types.
FOLLOWING THE SELECTION of departmental vehicles posted previously over several updates, here is a further mix of different types, including ZBA ‘Rudd’, ZCA ‘Sea Urchin’ and ZCV ‘Clam’ wagons.
