Hornby OO RailRoad Procor PVA Van - Era 8

A small batch of 20 curtain sided vans, numbered between PR6915-PR6934, were constructed between 1982 and 1984 by Procor at Wakefield in Yorkshire. These vans were owned by Procor and were made available for spot hire.

Under TOPS, they were coded as PVA and were built to Diagram No. PV009A. Each van measured at 41ft 11in over headstocks and included a wheelbase of 29ft 6in, with the batch able to carry about 31t as a load.

The model features a PVA curtain sided van with the side featuring a blue Procor livery. The running number is PR6934 and is modelled as the prototype was on Immingham Docks in 1986. It incorporates fixed tension couplings for easier coupling to other locomotives and rolling stock.
