Description

A freight wagon with a load

The 9V railway included more than locomotives and passenger cars; freight wagons brought the track layout to life. This flatbed carries a tractor as its cargo, which makes it more than an empty wagon. At 180 pieces it is a mid-sized set that attaches easily to a locomotive you already own. It shows how much play value a single wagon can have when the load is a vehicle of its own, something you can unload and drive away from the siding.

Black, red and yellow

Black forms the chassis, red and yellow add accents on the tractor and the wagon, and transparent parts finish the details. The parts list contains 71 different elements, a rich selection for 180 bricks. The running gear and the tractor attachments in particular bring many special shapes. That matters to train builders, because chassis parts and wheels can be reused in wagons of your own. How many of each type the set includes is shown in the list on this page, so you can plan ahead.

One figure for operations

The single minifigure fits a driver or railway worker, and a freight wagon needs little more. What counts more is use on the layout: the wagon runs on 9V track and combines with other cars to form a goods train. If you only want to display it, park the tractor alongside to show the loading function. The build is uncomplicated and quick, so you can fit it in between other projects without a long pause, and without needing the instructions open all the time.

Checking your stock

If you have the parts in a box, the “What can I build?” tool on this page shows which sets you can put together from your stock, fully or partly. That is especially worthwhile with train parts, since bogies, wheels and buffers often belong to several sets. The parts list also lets you check that your wagon is complete. You spot missing elements early and avoid needless purchases when only a single piece has to be replaced.
