The programme of rolling stock production undertaken by Oliver Bulleid during his time as Chief Mechanical Engineer at Corás Iompair Éireann (CIÉ) in the 1950s contained a number of now-iconic vehicles, among them being the humble H Van. With a 10ft wheelbase and 12-ton capacity, these unassuming vans became CIÉ’s standard covered wagon and they found their way to every point of the Irish railway network during their time in service, present in long rakes or mixed trains in larger yards and in smaller groups or singly in sidings and goods sheds right across the island.

Adjusting brake shoes

It is a very fine detailed model and you have allowed for movement of wheels
to fit 21 mm Irish scale track.
One drawback is you have not made the same provision for the brake shoes
which should be modelled closer to the axle boxes.
It means that I have to uses my skill to move same.

CIE Bulleid H Van - Brown (CIR roundel era)

Irish Railway Models/Accuracale continue to push the boundaries of realism with this model, including the ability to model prototypical 21mm gauge.

Bullied H van.

Great wagon and detail but I think the roof should have been a very dark grey , roof colors varied on them there was so many of them. Some roofs would have been black too. Well done on this iconic wagon.

Usual high standard

A very well packed item. The van has the usual high standard of detail especially in below. It's well weighted and runs really smoothly on the track. Another excellent product.

Accurascale never cease to amaze me with their products. Here, we have finely crafted CIE Box Vans from Accurascale's IRM group. As always, the products in this three pack are nicely recreated in 00 scale. The printing, fine details, and overall design work on them are exquisite. Some of these mixed together would make an interesting rake within a UK layout, never mind an Irish one to roll on.
