C80 12ton Wood Bodied Van Kit (Unventilated, "Wood ends") (D1664)

D1664 unfitted type, steel underframe (9' 0" wb./ 17' 6" oh.). These were a modified version of the MR D664 van (see Kit C84), the differences being reversal of the diagonal side strapping, and a backwards step in the reduction of the wheelbase to 9 feet. It may be that this was suitable for use in yards having wagon turntables. 2.544 vans were built between 1924 and 1926. Some vans remained in use until the 1960s.

There is an LMS transfer pack for this kit see CMR080-LMS in the transfers section.

We stock wheels for this kit in OO, EM and P4/S4.
