Great model there Sam. Those carflats take me back to my 70's train spotting days. They used to run on the old Motorail services between major cities and to tourist destinations in places like Cornwall and the Scottish highlands. Basically you would rive to the station, hand you car keys to a member of staff and go sit in a standard passenger coach. The BR staff would drive your car onto a small (4-5 normally, but I have seen up to 10) of those carflats via special loading ramps. (the ramps at Bristol Temple Meads are still there, although out of use). The flats would then be shunter to the rear of the train, and the off you would go, When you got to your destination, the train would divide. The coaches to the platform and the flats to the loading dock. Many destination stations had special motorail lounges where you relax in BR comfort with a cup of BR coffee while your car was unloaded and delivered to a pick up point.
For best use of them as a model run a few of them (with a few cars) behind 4 or 5 BR mk1 or mk2 coaches in blue and white livery, and haul with a meaty old diesel. Devon and Cornwall bound trains used class 52 westerns at first, then 47s and 50s in later years. Other regions also used 47s along with Peaks although doubleheaded 25s were not unknown
Good review.
Hope all is well
Kinda sounds like a British version of the Amtrak Auto-train, lol
@@freebrickproductions pretty much so
@@stashyjon Thanks a lot for sharing Jon - sounds fantastic... seems like such an alien concept to me these days!!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
@@SamsTrains problem as it was damn expensive to travel that way. It worked in the 1970's fuel crisis, but when that as over it sort of died the death
Four hours later: Sam " I have justed 3D printed a flatbed wagon for cars and holiday makers".

Awhh that's good to hear - look after yourself my friend! :)
Thanks for watching, Sam :)

random UA-cam commenter: this video can cure depression

Sorry if you have depression mate, I had no more meme ideas and this was the only thing I could come up with.
@@Taschenschieber Depression is no joke, I've had two bouts of it and am still on the tablets. Those who treat or still treat mental illness as a punchline need to do some serious growing up. Stay safe. Pete.
When I moved from one side of Australia to the other, we took the train. They had a car wagon, and our car came across on the train.
Wow that's awesome!! Super cool! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
This is probably my 3 favourite piece of rolling stock.
Ooh awesome - I can see why, it's a banger! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Your welcome :)
Traditional Bachmann Tax . Love it. Yep used to be used on motorail services , where. You could transport your car down to Cornwall or up to Scotland . You sat in the first class coach’s up front and the cars were rowed behind . There is actually a Motorail version
Looks like Oxford Rail rolling stock has become a favourite of yours hasn’t it Sam?
It sure has... always a good experience! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
@@SamsTrains haha good to hear that you like them :D
Hi Sam, nice piece of rolling stock, I remember these back in the day, heading to exotic places like Penzance from London. Yes I did say Penzance, not very exotic these days.! It was very posh back then to put your car on a train and take it on holiday with you.! You cannot do that in the 21st century, now you get to sit in a hard badly designed seat from London to Penzance for five hours, with no buffet on the train, and then get charged the price of a airline ticket to New York on concorde, that's probably the reason you cannot take the car with you now in the 21st century, no bloody money.!
Carflat wagons had wooden ends that dropped down and rested on the buffers, so the cars when loaded could be driven the length of the train, when it consisted of more than one wagon, the yellow items were indeed "chocks" that went under the car wheels.
Thanks a lot for sharing Roy, appreciate the info!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Here in France we had the "auto-train" service were passengers could had their cars transported with them on a mixed train, cars were on double-decker flatbeds and coaches were fitted for night trains. You could book a trip, board at a specially designed station in Paris (Paris-Bercy auto-train station, with car loading ramps), sleep in the train during the night, and wake up at the French Riviera with your Aston Martin at the doorstep of the station, a valet handling you the keys.
That was pretty stylish and had accustomed customers, but the cost of refurbishment of the sleeping coach terminated all night trains in France, including this peculiar service...
By the way your Aston Martin looks pretty nice, paint and chromes are realistically shiny and details are pretty good for the scale.
Very cool Damien - would love to have a go on something like that some time! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Amtrak (here in the States) used to have a service similar to this, in which people could travel in comfort in the passenger cars, while their autos were loaded onto auto racks and coupled behind the passenger train. This way, when you got to your destination, they would unload all the autos and you didn’t have to rent a car there. I don’t know if they still do this - I doubt it.
I just ordered the weathered version last week and i think it's great 👍🏻 You always seem to do reviews of my recent purchases 🤣
Wheel chocks is what I believe them to be.
Nice piece of rolling stock that will be fun to "deck out" 🤔 with the many period vehicles available from Oxford. Thanks Sam, nice find.
Thanks Jimmy - yes I think so too! It certainly would - will have to pick out some nice suitable cars for it!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
The huge concrete loading ramp for these wagons is still in existence at Fort William Station. The end shutter of each wagon could be folded down and then locked to allow a continuous "driveway" over the entire train of wagons so that cars could be loaded efficiently from front to back, and then offloaded at its destination.
Nice and detailed and not a bad price either. Remember these when the empties were shunted in from Hackney Marsh sidings into the old Mortonhampsted, Heathfield platform for the Newton Abbot/Sterling Motorail with the Sleeper coaches, always full during the summer months.
Ooh wow! You can fit anything (within scale) on it! Hotwheels, Oxford cars, potentially box container trucks, and more!
haha you totally can... and hotwheels do fit... don't ask me how I know! ;D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Oxford Rail rolling stock makes a lot of sense. Good quality, great detail, nice running and very reasonably priced. I recently bought the BR 7 plank triple pack for £26. A Bachmann mineral wagon is about £22 for one! :O
The loops on the wagon ends are themelves buffers - they rest on top of the wagon buffers when the ends are dropped down to allow cars to roll along a rake of wagons when loading and unloading. A *possible* point of contention here: I can't find an original photo, but I *think* that brake lever at the left hand end (facing) is either the wrong way around or shouldn't be there at all.
Fascinating - wouldn't have guessed that! Thanks for sharing that about the brake levers too!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I’ve been following your channel since you had 10k subscribers. Watched every video and love them all. You’ve a amazing channel on UA-cam
Thanks for another brilliant review, Sam! I have been enamored with your channel for over a year now and you are by far my favorite content creator! Please continue to support your fans with your dedication and excellent work and thank you so much for taking to youtube with your passion for this hobby! Much love from my ferroequinologist friends and I!
It's a pleasure Kyle, thank you so much for your kind words, I really do appreciate that!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
The 'things' at 8:16 are supports to make a flat floor to allow driving the cars over the buffers.
There might be a metal plat hidden somewhere inside, as there seems to be nothing else keeping the frame torsion free, but there are no tell tale signs of that visible
Great review as always! These wagons were used on Motorail services as well. BR had a massive motorail network until the late 80s/early 90s.
Thanks a lot for sharing - duly noted mate! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Please remember, that these wagons were always rostered at the tail end of BR MotoRail trains with the coaches behind the loco, so to be fair if you're running them prototypically the weight really isn't an issue
Awesome review. This reminds of the Amtrak Autotrain here in the US where passengers can drive their cars into a rail car called autoracks or auto carriers to take with them on their trip.
Crikey that is a big un and shows good finesse. Good background history in the video. I believe I saw
these on the old GWR mainline from Birmingham to London around 1963 carrying
cars from the Midlands and pulled by Class 47s.
It certainly is! And fantastic - that must have been awesome to see!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Oh yes. Carflats = Newton-le-Willows to Newton Abbott Motorail = Holidays in my Uncles's caravan in Devon. Long before the M5, when you spent three hours in a traffic jam in Bristol. :-)
Those metal brackets on the ends would rest on the buffer casings when the end flaps were lowered, to allow a continuous flat surface from wagon to wagon when driving the vehicles on and off.
Sam. The yellow 'clamps' are in fact wheel-chocks, which helped to secure the cars from rolling about the deck and depending solely on their potentially weak handbrakes!
I got an AUTOMAX auto rack for $60.00. It is really cool to see this 124ft auto rack take corners that my 89ft flatcars look weird taking. As a whole, autoracks are cool (sometimes, as long as they ain't billboards).
I recently bought a continental 2-level car transporter wagon that was also used for tourist trains. Mine has seven loose cars on it and room for an eighth.
Hey cool! Those mechanical pivots you mention at 9:16 are actually for semi-proper close couplers. They're basically standard here in Germany for good H0 scale rolling stock and engines, as our close couplers require such mechanisms as to not cause problems when reversing or navigating complex curves and switches. If you wonder what these couplers look like, just google "Märklin Kurzkupplung" or "Roco Universalkupplung" for some pics... you may only find stuff in German, but the pictures should more or less tell you everything.
You absolutely can haul these with a steam locomotive. New cars were regularly delivered to Bathgate in West Lothian in the 1960s on wagons like these. I have a picture in a book with a train of them double-headed by a black 5 and an A4! That would be an interesting train to re-enact.
Oh very good - that's even better then, thank you!! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I’ve always wanted to see that tractor go around your railway :) looks like a fairly good wagon!
Great video,
Cheers Dan :)
haha exactly... finally it's been able to do so! Glad you liked it!! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Great video Sam , i purchased a couple of these oxford car flats from hattons for around the same price. They are also well suited to run behind some motorail branded GUVs . Ive also seen a few interesting UA-cam videos about motorail . Many thanks.
Into the shopping bag it goes it will definitely run well with my class 37. Brilliant video mate 🙂
haha fantastic - you won't regret this one, lovely piece of kit! Thanks so much! :D
Wonderful. Perfectly balanced on all terms for the price indeed. Metal seems rare these days. Märklin used to be all metal frames and metal inner shell of the bogies, but then were lacking detail at ridiculous pricing, but they would happily survive a child's play of course. For fine details as a serious hobby, ABS injection seems to beat diecast I suppose. By modern paints, one can hardly see the difference anyway.
Autozug (auto train), they were called in Germany but they were double stacked. You could book a vacation/holiday that way. Those wagons were of course also used by car manufacturers for transporting and exporting new cars on the continent.
Yet another great review sam keep them coming Dave
Oxford Rail seem to be able to produce excellent wagons, that other major manufacturers should take notice of Sam. Another fair and honest review...Bob
Have just bought 2nd , other colour version, easily holds three large cars and even with very little fixing , just through the yellow pRts included under car wheels and has worked well
Hello Sam! I‘m loving these long videos! Got that bell on!
Thanks so much - appreciate the support my friend! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
You were right about the yellow things being wheel clamps. Modern cars could not be chained down.
Motorail history. Railway Freight Operations - Non Passenger Coaching Stock - Private Carriages and Motor Cars (igg.org.uk)
Motorail services are still in operation in many parts of Europe.
Really enjoyed this. It is nice to see a rolling stock review every now and then. Is brand new autos still hauled by rail in the UK? Here in the US they are and is the number one cargo on some railroads. That flatcar would be cool for maybe that tank on that war well car you reviewed and maybe some tractors and construction equipment like a loader, back hoe, or an excavator.
Thanks very much my friend - I'm not sure about that, I've never seen anything like that, but then again I don't spend too much time around real trains! ;D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I remember seeing Motorail, pretty sure T Paddington, in 1979 which was pretty much getting to the end of the service. Passengers would indeed take their own car so save the drive from A to B (they’d travel in normal carriages) but that was from the time when cars were unreliable, barely reach 60mpf screaming the guts out of the engine and no motorways or dual carriageways etc. By the late 70s Motorail was barely needed.
Hi Sam, Yes nice review, and a nice wagon, One on the cards for me, £23 , not bad All the Best Brian 🤗 ,
Thanks very much Brian - certainly a good deal indeed! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
I just love everything about this rolling stock and loved the review even more have a good day Sam
Thanks so much Seb - yes it's a wonderful piece isn't it? :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Those yellow bits are chocks for the wheels, not exactly clamps but you got their purpose spot on. I'd have thought if they were built from 1959, they would be suitable for steam haulage. The coupling mechanisms on these are great, but those on the mk3as aren't as great because they sit between the chassis bottom and the interior detailing piece which uses screws that are too short so it pops apart. (Not saying the mk3as are bad, but their couplings and the too-fine roof bands (plus the intercity grey not being quite right) detract a bit from what is a fantastic model.)
I bought 2 of them when they first came out, they're fantastic vehicles. They tend to bounce apart sometimes, so I need some hunt close couplings to fasten them together closely, but I love running them. I'm now considering getting a bachmann one, since 3 carflats is a better match for 7 passenger vehicles than just 2, but £33 for a coach without a body/interior is quite a bit.
Excellent video!! I’m thinking you could get more bullmans and turn the car flat into a large bullman wagon!!
Very good and informative review, thank you Sam. Could you plase tell how wide the loading deck is (in mm)? Greatings from Germaany and stay healthy. Joachim
Hello Sam I. Love watching your videos and they really cheer me up and is nice to have nice people to watch in COVID and your funny jokes always make me laugh so thanks
That's lovely to hear Frankie - you stay safe now my friend!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Hi Sam another quality product from Oxford Rail my favourite loco in your collection is Oxford Rail its the Dean Goods in the GWR Green. Cheers Liam
Just a theory but I think those protrusions on the end of the wagon are there to rest on the buffer beams. As they would have to lower the end of the carflat to have cars running from the loading bay down the train of multiple carflats. They act like the tender footplate between engine and tender.
Awesome video today Sam beautiful wagon I will have to get one
Thanks so much James - I can recommend it! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Ahh thanks for uploading this at last lol. :)
Hi Sam. Hope you are well. Thinking about the lamp irons, and not sure of Britain but in Australia the car flat wagons bring up the rear with its load of cars for tourists heading off to Central Australia so i imagine lamp irons would be for tail lamps.
! agree 100% that Oxford manages to balance the price/detail/quality of their wagons really well.
I think I've bought as many new Oxford wagons as I have any other manufacturer.
And as you say, they are not subject to BGT (Bachmann Gouging Tax) 🤣
Cheers!
good vid sam keep up the goods vids
Thank you so much!! :D
I think the little yellow (green?) things in the bag are wheel chocks. Absolutely necessary for a rolling load like autos, or lorry trailers (or the occasional farm tractor)! Don’t want those rolling around, even without “loose shunting”. That would be bad. 🙃 Tie-downs and chains/straps are also called for, for safety concerns. But try modeling those in OO scale… 🤔
Hey up Sam they run them with br mk1 coaches blue grey got couple of em use them we steam on goods trains great video 😀😀😀
These "Roll on - Roll off" trains were a thing all over Europe in the 60's-80' to attract more people to the railway. "Bring your car with you" was advertised, with more or less success, but these trains completely gone extinct in the 90's , tough u can still see the ramps at some stations.
Nope. Still running in lots of countries.
@@Poliss95 nowhere in CE!
Are you sure that separately fitted car deck piece isn't diecast metal ?
It would make sense that it was. Maybe you could create a tiny scratch through the paint on the underside to see if metallic silver shines through.
Ooh nice some more rollingstock. Not a warwell warwell warwell though. Great video. This is a good one. I would like one of these.
haha nope... got to get away from warwell warwell warwells for a bit now! ;D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
This wagon looks like something nice to have a lot of!
Are you going to release your drawings for the H0 3d printer trucks? That would be awesome!
You're right it would be! I'm actually going to be releasing the models monthly for members - so that's the way you can get them if you want! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Excellent as usual with Oxford Rail. Unfortunately, this one is too recent for my roster (roughly nothing after 1962).
Oxford Rail also have assorted car packs for thius wagon, clever idea !
Should be ok for your layout. The service started in 1956 and had the maroon and yellow livery until changed to blue and white in 1964.
That is cool sam keep up the good work sam god bless
Looks like those yellow clamps can be used as parking boots for cars on the street. That way you can see who on the layout didn’t pay their parking tickets. That’d be funny.
Garry the farmer be like ey up weres me bloody tractor gone 😂😂😂😂
haha!! There's a cracking story idea right there! ;D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Good old Oxford Rail they have done it again, good model at good price. Loved the Bachmann tax comment, so true. Couldn't help noticing though - Heljan review "why have the put screw link coupling on", Oxford review "Why haven't they put screw link couplings on". Come on lad, make up your mind😉🤣.
Very much so Rob - fantastic job from them as always! Nope - it's well and good that Oxford didn't fit them... but not providing them at all is a different story ;)
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Hey Sam, I have a question that’s completely unrelated to the video(sorry). I just picked up an a4 in br green with an early crest. What coaches would be accurate with it? Thanks a lot.
Lovely looking cars! Would you possibly considering getting vehicles from Oxford for example a steam roller or tractor?
Totally! Something like that would be way better for this! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Monorail as the passenger car service was, was one of those things that seemed like good idea, like the nationwide Euro Star or the Channel Tunnel Sleeper trains but simply could not work commercially in a country the size of the UK. This was it involved driving to one of the few loading depots and departing on the very irregular service to somewhere vaguely in the region of where you wanted to go i.e Scotland or Wales. When you finally arrived there was also more than a good chance that some scallywag had lobbed half a brick through windscreen as a bit of school holiday entertainment. Quite simply it cost a lot more and was good deal less convenient than driving to your destination and so despite many efforts by BR it always flopped.
The motorail wagons were eventually converted to have a fence like cover over the whole wagon which would stop things being thrown at vehicle windscreens
@@davidstrains4910 True,, but that did happen until after a few years of operation, I doubt many customers came back to see if their windscreen survived the journey a 2nd time.
Thanks for sharing Graham - yes it sounds absurd today doesn't it? Still a fascinating modelling opportunity though, so no complaints!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
@@SamsTrains Agreed, in the early 70s me and my dad would often go along in Coventry to the Rootes warth at Humber Road to see the Imps and Hunters from the Linwood factory being off loaded. This is what you had to do for entertainment before the PlayStation was invented.
I hope you get the APT Tilting train from Rapido, they've re-released them.
Edit: If you do it'd be cool if you got some extra coaches for it
I like Oxfordrail they have quality and
value for money even for this car flat wagon.
Same goes for there steam locos as well.
Nice video.
👍👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂🙂
I still think those oxford tankers you reviewed not long ago are fab! I like the car flat though! Would look good with some "new" from the factory early 90s cars on it 🤔
I think the latest period these ran to was the 1980's as Oxford diecast do have a set of cars in what they call a motorail pack and they also do packs for 1960's and 1970's cars. I think by the 1990's they used the double deck car transporter wagons to transport new cars. Motorail was brought back for a short time in the 1990's with the new privately owned company first great western but it was never successful and the wagons used were a bit like the Eurotunnel train car carrying carriages.
@@bentullett6068 ah fair enough! I was thinking that something based on LMS coaches or mk1 coaches would be a little outdated in the 1990s... Could still get an earlier oxford pack then!
I rather like the green/yellow depressed-center flatcar, has properly molded (separately applied?) tie-down chains, but the arch-bar trucks (bogies) would be more appropriate for U.S. rolling stock up to about the 1920s or so. Can anyone confirm if this is prototypical (for this model)?
Does exactly what it says on the tin, and cheaper than Bachmann. Nice! I might even invest in one. Best, Pete.
Absolutely Pete - I can highly recommend it! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Wow! Awesome video! That looks awesome!
Thanks so much - really glad you liked it! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
@@SamsTrains np. Stay safe Sam! :)
If you need the accurate period vehicles for these wagons Oxford diecast sell car packs which date from the 1960's to 1980's when the motorail services operated. I have been tempted on getting one of these motorail wagons myself.
Nice wagon. I don't have room, I have everything I need model railway wise. I was thinking perhaps Evening Star could have hauled the train, she is a heavy freight engine after all. Perhaps the carflat wagon wouldn't have suited her to that extent.
That's okay Kelly - glad you have everything you need! :D
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Random question what do you think about the streamined passenger trains of America
This is a nice car, detailed trucks are nice!
Hi Sam. You mentioned that the car flat was not suitable for use with a steam locomotive, but you didn't say why. Unless I missed something, it isn't to do with vacuum brakes as wagons don't seem to be so fitted. Tractor: Not your average John Deere (or is it); what make is it?
Nice wagon Sam AND FREE POSTING OVER £20 WELL DONE DERAILS
i just knew what was going to "happen" when you put the car models on the flatbed waggon....just had to give'em a good shunt for and backward.....:-)
i would call it my "big brother syndrome"....you know...the one who crashed my first märklin railway set back in the day.....
I don't know if you've ever seen the 2010 movie, "Unstoppable," but this year is the 20th anniversary of the actual event that inspired that movie known as, "The crazy 8s incident."
Hotwheels are very close to oo scale and are always at a cheep price so if you get any hotwheels you will have plenty of cargo for that wagon.
Yeah I've noticed that too - they are ideal!
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Thank you again for the 3D printer video i ordered one i want to make my own slot car rims for ho.
I know a bit a about traind but I know a load about tractors. That small yellow tractor that you have on that wagon is an industrial version of and older styles David Brown tractor
Oxford rolling stock I think has been doing well lately.
Have you done a review on a MR 0-10-0 Lickey Banker? If so you should do one.
I think so too - we just need more of it! I never have... nobody makes one in RTR sadly :(
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
The car that you put on the wagon is a Aston Martin, specifically a DB9, Yes i obsess over cars, and i approve the choice. Sadly i'm unsure of what tractor it is though.
