Brake Vans are the British equivalent of the North American Caboose. Much like their stateside counterparts, they could frequently be found at the rear of freight trains through much of the 20th Century. As technology advanced, many found a second career in maintenance-of-way operations, helping to keep the rail network moving. The new Bachmann British Brake Van can do exactly this for your railroad. The car’s exclusive dry cleaning system features a reusable track cleaning pad to keep your rails shining and your operation trouble-free. Additional replacement cleaning pads No. 16949 can be purchsed separately.
