Graham Farish 7-plank 377-082GF 7-plk Kobo.jpg (16451 bytes)

The high sided coal wagon originally produced by Graham Farish in 1970 was a 10ft 6-plank and not the usual 7-plank. A large number of these were produced by the company before Bachmann bought Graham Farish in 2000. In 2005, after producing a large number of the 6-plank wagon in private owner liveries, Bachmann launched the Blue Riband improved version which was now a 7-plank had spoked wheels, a 9ft wheelbase and had separate brake gear. Both fixed end and end door types of body were modelled, the Kobo wagon, seen here, being of the end door type.
