PFA - Carr-coonteyner P

The Accurascale PFA wagon is an outstanding model of a specialty wagon in current use for nuclear traffic. The model has a good weight, is free rolling and exhibits fantastic detail. The unloaded wagons are useful to anyone modelling DRS as the wagons, designed to haul containers, are also used as spacers and can sometimes be seen in conjunction with larger wagons such as the KUAs.

Bought as part of a bundle. Doesn't come with a load, so marginally not as good value as those with a container. However it's still an excellent runner thanks to the metal body and has very good detail and is relatively sturdy. Perfect for a small layout.

Great set, useful wagon set.

Detail in these is amazing, great runner, great for smaller layers, highly recommend

Brilliant little wagons to carry my LLW containers. A pity DRS/BNFL don't run a larger fleet!

Deltic is superb not much else to say about PFA as I have not ordered any this year. Still worth 5 stars

Great wagons, reasonable price

I love those little PFA wagons. I have already bought some of the DRS variety direct from Accurascale and some Gypsum wagons via Rails, and I have more DRS ones on order which I eagerly await as I write this. The PFAs are very free rolling and hold the track well, due to their diecast chassis. Despite the high level of detail and clumsy handling of my stock I have never had any problems with fragile bits breaking off. The wagons which come without containers are also useful as barrier wagons, either side of Bachmann FNA flask wagons. You can see this formation at Carlisle if the train has come from Dounreay via the Far North Line as the PFA wagons escort the FNAs for better weight distribution over the bridges in the north. The wagons which have no containers come instead with a realistic plastic webbing in place of the container, so that the base detail of the wagon is visually complete. Five stars all round, this is a wagon type which I would highly recommend.

A superb addition to the Accurascale range and useful wagon for the DRS fleet to haul.
