7 1/4 inch gauge 7-plank braked driving truck - stock code 12342

A particularly well-made 7 1/4 inch gauge braked four wheel driving truck.

In an area of the hobby where expediency often wins over quality of build, it's refreshing to see so much care taken with this one - a nicely detailed model in its own right, whilst being a thoroughly practical driving truck.

The dummy leaf spring and brake rigging on the chassis hides a mechanical disc brake on the inside; the truck is complete with upholstered seat and driver's footrests.
