 Parcel
express.
Rating 6/10,Same as the class 73 in terms of running
and detail.
I know little about this model as it belonged to my late fathering law. This
model handles the same as Class 83 having same motor and build quality.
"This is a lima model of a GWR express parcels railcar. these
were built by AEC, and could, like their passenger sisters, be set up with 3
different gear ratios, for where they had to work. This is a later type,
having boxier streamlining. Now lima cease to exist, these are worth quite a
bit, as many people would like one. It is in the GWR livery. Some of these
survived into BR ownership. There are 3 railcars in preservation, No 4 a
streamlined model at Steam in Swindon, No 20, possibly at the KESR, and No
22 at Didcot." Thanks goes to Mr Singleton, for providing this
information.
