As CIÉ continued its programme of rolling stock renewal under the tenure of Oliver Bulleid, Inchicore Works turned its attention to the construction of a humble but useful flat wagon with a 12-ton capacity. Utilising a version of Bulleid’s patented triangulated chassis developed as the basis for a variety of CIÉ wagons, a total of 79 were turned out between March and April 1958. Later, a number of withdrawn H Vans were repurposed as flat wagons for the Permanent Way Department which were use for transporting materials and machinery

CIE LB Flat Wagon Pack 1.

At long last, the Permanent Way Department Irish wagon in 00 scale. A simple wagon for the Irish Railway fleet of yesteryear and at long last IRM the sub Accurascale hand of the manufacturer are here. I never thought they would see the light of day, to be carrying loads as a rake behind one of my Irish locomotives. IRM have captured the model excellently in these triple packs, for detail and looks. The printing and details maybe a bit basic looking for a four poster wagon, but this is how they were. The simplicity captured to a tee, but beautifully presented.

There isn't much to these flat wagons, but they are still very well decorated and detailed. A rake of these on a layout does look awesome even in their simplicity. For around £15-20 each they are well worth it compared to other flat wagons from other manufacturers that charge over £20 for similar flat wagons.
