Expected Delivery December 2026 (Subject to Change at Manufacturer's Discretion).

This newly tooled Civil Engineers YGB Seacow Wagon Triple Pack includes numbers DB980062, DB980049, and DB980074 in a stylish Grey and Yellow livery. 

It features intricate detailing such as guard rails, handwheels, catwalks, brake equipment and buffers, as well as a precision-moulded bodyshell. 

A mainstay of engineering trains for many years, these ballast wagons would transport and deposit fresh ballast on top of newly laid track via the chute located between the bogies, and could be seen operating with a huge variety of locomotive traction over their lifetime – from BR Blue diesels in the 70’s, to Civil Engineers ‘Dutch’ 31, 37 & 47s in the 90’s, and finally Class 66s in the privatised era. 

These ‘fishy’ wagons are sure to be a staple of your TT:120 wagon pool for many years to come!

History:

These 1970s-built bogie ballast wagons were reclassified from YGH ‘Sealion’ to YGB ‘Seacows’ after having their vacuum brake cylinders removed but retained their through vacuum pipes so they could still be used in vacuum-braked trains. 

Each wagon in the triple-pack has a different running number.
