The BR engineers' Grampus is being produced for the first time as a ready-to-run model. This model is painted in the engineers olive green livery and lettered for return to the BR concrete works at Taunton. Many concrete components were manufactured at Taunton including fence posts, station platform components and edging slabs.

Engineering wagons have long been neglected, the Grampus was one of the BR engineers principal open wagons. Everything that needed to be moved to a remote worksite could be loaded into Grampus wagons. Full drop sides allowed ballast and spoil to be unloaded easily, while the removable ends allowed long loads to be accomodated.
