Chris Andrew's Lancashire, Derbyshire and East Coast Railway Horse Box

Description: One of 4 built by the Lancaster Carriage and Wagon Works in 1897, based on a Great Eastern Railway design. The Great Central Railway absorbed the LD&ECR in 1907. It is not certain that these horse boxes ever received the GCR insignia. The model is a D&S etched brass kit in 7mm finescale with Slaters and added details. Finished in LD&ECR livery with gentle weathering representing its early condition.
