GC HO Scale Ore Wagon – W44 Type, 5-Car Set (No. 2)

Description

Eureka’s steam era W44 features the first dedicated ore carrier, the GC. This was a subclass of the G wagon, introduced in 1951, of which there were 500 vehicles. In 1961, to carry the lead ore from Broken Hill to Cockle Creek, forty-eight G wagons had their underfloor hoppers and side doors sealed and were recoded GC, with a red corner post to indicate the change.
