Recommended price £33.95   A BR 35T 'Covhop' covered hopper wagon in BR bauxite livery 'British Industrial Sand' No B870863.  The Branchline Covhop boasts a number of interchangeable features allowing individual wagons to be modelled accurately and the wagon depicted here is one with roller bearing axle boxes, OLEO buffers, and disc brakes – these are fitted to one side of the wagon only and necessitate that the wheels on that side are plain disc wheels, as opposed to the 3-hole disc wheels found on the non-braked side. The highly detailed bodyshell is adorned with separate walkways, roof hatches and end bracing, while gravity discharge doors are incorporated into the chassis amongst the running gear.
