Bachmann VEA 12t VanWide ¦ A very special gift from Neil [review and history]

In this video we take a look at a surprise gift I received from one of our subscribers, it has stunning levels of detail. British Rail built a large number of Vanwide wagons in response to high demand from various customers. They featured plywood sides with flush doors that slid to alleviate the problem of confined locations. The door opening method made a door aperture of 9ft possible which aided the loading of pallets by forklift truck. It was this wide opening that gave rise to their nickname. From 1977, 550 Vanwides were converted to VEA vans . #ModelTrainEnthusiasts #BritishModelRailways #RailwayModeling #RailwayHistory #ModelRailwayTips #RailwayHeritage #HistoricalModelTrains #ModelRailwayRepairs #DIYModelRailways #ModelRailwayElectrics #modelrailwaysunlimited #UKmodelRailways #modelrailways00gauge #modelrailwayreviews #ClassicBritishTrains https://www.youtube.com/c/ModelRailwa...
