Quarryman’s Type 3 Carriage Kit
Quarryman’s Type 3 Carriage Kit
Type 3 - Closed glazed quarrymen's carriage built from 1885 . They had springs and seated up to 16 in a single compartment on perimeter seats. There was also a 'mule' or seat on top of the vacuum brake cylinder set in the middle of the floor, a seat traditionally occupied by the most junior person present - usually a Quarryman's Lad. Otherwise it might be used as a card table, but players needed to be accurate in dealing onto the mule. In other carriages there were Bible study groups, choir practices, self-improvement classes, trade union branch meetings and so on. There was a central door on each side with a droplight window, flanked by another droplight on each side of the door. Should extra light be required, a quarry candle was stuck to the wall with a bit of clay. From 1885 to 1887, eighteen of these carriages were built at Boston Lodge and were numbered 1 to 18. They again featured end balconies. As with all of our other kits all castings, buffers, axleboxes and all steel wheel; sets are included. This range has been developed to partner Roundhouse size locomotives and have been scaled Accordingly
