The wagon formerly known as Pipe

Another Parkside kit that may be ready for the Wigan exhibition. This is their 12T BR Pipe wagon, initially one of 800 built to convey pipe traffic from the huge Stanton and Staveley steelworks in Derbyshire but with the decline in those duties, often seen in general use carrying crates, cases and machinery. This one is ready for weathering and those short Bachmann couplings, if the Guru can source any as we are running low. Why can't the r-t-r manufacturers organise a decent supply of spares?
