RELEASED JULY 29 2008
This is for a wagon numbered "332" in pristine, or mint, condition.
Previously attempted by me in 2006, but withdrawn following advice from Dapol due to difficulties with printing the red plank, it has now been ordered following Dapol's release of a "Hopton Wood" wagon that had a similar red stripe.
Crynant Colliery was in the Neath Valley and was served by the Neath & Brecon Railway running from Swansea Docks to Brecon.
The station to the south of Crynant (pronounced "cry nant") was Cefn Coed where there is a colliery museum, where this wagon will be sold as well.
208 of these wagons have been produced - of which 37 have been weathered (see item 70w)
