THE BR SIX-WHEEL BZ COLLECTION Parcels workhorses.
Full of character.Explore all eight TMC-exclusive BZ vans, then discover the individuality of our workshop-weathered editions. |
Eight running numbers across crimson, maroon and blue. |
Hello @FIRSTNAME@,
There were just 80 BR Diagram 358 BZ brake/luggage vans, built in 1950 to an LNER-derived design. Their hard-working lives took them well beyond the Eastern Region on parcels and luggage duties. Now this distinctive six-wheel design is available exclusively from TMC, produced by EFE Rail in OO gauge.
All eight factory-finished releases are shown below, followed by TMC-customised examples and three useful companions for your parcels train. |
| Worth knowing: detailed underframes, sprung NEM couplings, a compensated centre axle and compatibility with second-radius curves or greater. |

| | 02 / CUSTOM BY TMC Give your BZ a working life. The real vans were rarely washed. Soot, road dirt, faded paint and handwritten chalk marks built up in service. Our workshop recreates that character with individual weathering, destination markings and Deluxe finishes. Inspired by the prototype detail and modelling discussion on RMweb. Choose a ready-customised edition or discuss your own finish with TMC. |
