Where is it? Both Hornby and Bachmann produce LMS liveried frieght engines, but where is the stock for them to pull, especially brake vans? The only Item I can see available is a Bachmann 12 Ton Southern 2+2 planked vent van. Hornby have a couple of 6 wheel milk tankers with brakes not in line with the wheels, so they are a non starter. (Or should that be non stopper)

Sorry for not replying sooner, not sure whats in the current catalogue but I have a few Bachmann wagons that got 2nd hand - ventilated vans and a cattle wagon. Dont know how old they are though. As for brake vans, there are some very nice brass kits about, esp ex-midland
10T ones. If youre not inclined to make kits then keep a look out at 2nd hand stuff. Can find tatty looking ones with plastic wheels. They clean up nicely and new metal wheels added. Big advantage is they are often only a couple of pounds - plus some paint and tlc. Same goes for other wagonsCheers, Simon
