Dapol have just released images of their new rolling stock due in at stockists after 30th June with some scheduled for late July. Many of the new items are products of the new moulds and include additional detail not present on earlier models.

B629 - United Dairies Milk Tanker

B628 - 12T Hopper Hoare Bros

B627 - SR Box Van

B626 - SLB Lime

B624 - Peak Lime

The United Dairies 6 wheeled tanker is particularly well done and at last modellers have an example of this wagon that is not based on a model that was over 45 years old!

Happy modelling
Gary

I've always liked these UK goods wagons most of all. Don't quite know how they would look behind a DRG Class 62 Tank Locomotive though.

You need something more like this.

Yep, that would work. I've always been struck by the toy like appearance of your older freight cars.

Of course in the States freight has long ruled the model pike world.
