TT6062 YGA 'Seacow' Ballast Hopper EWS 978006
Expected Delivery December 2026 (Subject to Change at Manufacturer's Discretion).
This newly tool EWS YGA Seacow Wagon 980076 displays a striking maroon livery. It features intricate detailing such as guard rails, handwheels, catwalks, brake equipment and buffers, as well as a precision moulded bodyshell.Â
A mainstay of engineering trains for many years, these ballast wagons would transport and deposit fresh ballast on top of newly laid track via the chute located between the bogies, and could be seen operating with a huge variety of locomotive traction over their lifetime – from BR Blue diesels in the 70’s, to Civil Engineers ‘Dutch’ 31, 37 & 47s in the 90’s, and finally Class 66s in the privatised era.Â
These ‘fishy’ wagons are sure to be a staple of your TT:120 wagon pool for many years to come!
Model Specification:
- Brand new tooling depicting Seacow and Sealion family of bogie hopper wagons

Livery:

History:
Bogie ballast wagons were first used by the London & South Western Railway in 1903 after the company opened a ballast quarry at Meldon in Devon in 1897. With relatively few modifications, BR adopted the wagon as a standard design, with the ‘Sealion’ and ‘Seacow’ versions first emerging from Shildon and Ashford works in 1971, the ‘Seacow’ being the air-braked version.
