HORNBY: Following the closure of the Canadian Hornby importer in 2023 we have contacted Hornby numerous times to secure continued supply of Hornby products to supply our Canadian customers. Unfortunately Hornby steadfastly refuse to communicate with us. Regretfully we have concluded that Hornby has no desire to support the Canadian market. As stocks of Hornby products are exhausted we are replacing these products with products from other manufacturers.

Gunpowder vans were especially constructed vans designed for the safer transport of gunpowder and other potentially explosive substances.

In the 1920’s the RCH laid down rules and standards governing the running and construction of these vans and these rules were enforced relatively unchanged until the early 1980’s when gunpowder vans were decommissioned.

The vans were often painted in distinguishing colours or with crosses to identify the wagons and the  potential dangers.

The Dapol model  gunpowder van features:

 •           Highly detailed body moulding

•           Profiled wheels

•           NEM pockets with self centring couplings

•           Accurately applied livery
