BR 21T Mineral Wagon – Hauling the Nation's Resources

The BR 21T Double Door mineral wagons were introduced by British Railways between 1950 and 1952. Initially, around 2,500 unfitted wagons were built. Later, between 1961 and 1963, a fitted version was introduced with 4,950 wagons manufactured. Add these versatile and iconic pieces of rolling stock to your Train Simulator collection and recreate historic coal transport operations.

BR 16T Mineral Wagon – The Workhorse of the Railways

The robust BR 16T mineral wagon design originated during WWII, emphasizing lightweight and all-metal construction. Pre-grouping companies like the LMS and LNER also utilized similar designs. In the early days of BR, these 16-ton unfitted mineral wagons were vital for coal traffic and durable enough for transporting scrap metal. Built to eliminate grease-lubricated axle boxes from older wagons, BR constructed over 300,000 of this core design, making it a staple of the era. These wagons exemplify the age of steam and diesel train operations and will look right at home on your heritage railways!

While many were initially built without vacuum brakes to save cost, BR later retrofitted some wagons recognizing the need for continuous brakes to increase safety and efficiency on longer train routes. This adds a unique historical perspective to your Train Simulator driving experience.
