Description
Up your TT:120 freight game with this industrialTouax KFA Container Wagon. Featuring two highly detailed containers, this wagon adds an authentic edge to your model railway layout.
This version of the Touax container wagon exploits the KFAs flexibility in having one 40ft-long container in the livery of Freightliner, and one 20ft tank container in the white livery of Spanish shipping company Concisa.
History
The KFA intermodal wagons were produced using bogies and components reclaimed from redundant wagons, such as the TEA tankers, and were built in Finland in the late 1980s for Tiphook Rail. At just over 60ft-long, the KFA is able to accommodate a mix of different shipping containers from the standardised range, either three 20ft containers, or a 40ft plus 20ft container.
In total, 240 of these bogie flat wagons were produced and as well as intermodal work, have also been used for transporting waste material, military equipment and on rail infrastructure trains, for which some are still in use today. As well as Tiphook Rail, the wagons have also been operated by Touax and Network Rail.
