It's fictional. But if you are happy with it as a generic representation of steam era private owner wagons (of which there were types surviving for specialised traffic operating in the BR steam era), then a brakevan on the end of the train is a must, and an appropriate freight engine like the 4F and 8F on the front, and off you go.
Blue Circle Vent Van
Hi, can anyone help me identify what time scale the wagon shown below, would of been seen on British Railways? Or is it a fictional livery?
I have a small rake of these, would I need to run the train with a brake van? I intend to run with a 4F or 8F.
Any advice is greatly appreciated, many thanks, Joe
