Description
Prototype information:
165 vacuum braked Borails were built to diagrams 1/482 and 1/483 in the late 1950s. The Borails were built with 8' plate bogies and vacuum brakes.
Borail BRVs: the original use for the Borails was to carry rail or beams. The usefulness of the design (particularly the flat Borail EC) soon saw them used for other uses including: second hand tractors being transported from Cambridge to Fishguard/Holyhead; and ordnance containers/military vehicles to Donnington. All were painted in bauxite/brown which weathered quickly in use. The Borails remained in this livery from 1959 until they were re-built in 1981-2.
