EFE RAIL E87046 BR SEA Wagon BR Railfreight Metals Sector with Hood Revised

OO GAUGE

Detailed model of the BR Railfreight SEA hooded air-braked steel carrier wagon finished in Railfreight Metals dark grey livery.

The SEA series wagons were adapted from SPA steel carrier wagons and fitted with a simple flexible hood system, similar to that adopted for road vehicles to provide weather protection for steel products moving between processing plants or as finished product. The main user of these wagons was Allied Steel and Wire, Cardiff and many of the hoods carried the company’s logo or Cardiff Rod Mill lettering in addition to BR Railfreight metals logos.
