Dapol DA4F-031-144 6 Wheel Milk Tank St. Ivel Weathered
The British Railways 6-wheel milk tanker wagons were introduced in the 1930s to improve bulk milk transportation across the UK. Early 4-wheeled designs proved unstable at speed, prompting the development of the 6-wheel variant for United Dairies and Express Dairy. These wagons offered better ride quality, higher capacity, and improved safety for long-distance milk delivery.
