Prototype: The MRC (Insulated/Refrigerated Car) was a bogie (four-axle) refrigerated van, one of the first high-speed freight wagons introduced by the NSWGR starting in 1932. They were built with timber-sheathed bodywork on a steel frame and used ice for chilling.
Historical Use: These wagons were essential for transporting perishable goods, particularly milk in cans and other chilled products. The most famous livery on these cars is the distinctive "Nepean Milk" branding.
Model Features:
Highly detailed, Ready-to-Run (RTR) HO scale model.
Injection-moulded plastic body.
Features like full brake rigging, underfloor detail, and etched metal parts.
Equipped with semi-scale metal wheels and genuine Kadee scale couplers.
Variations: SDS Models released the MRC in different packs and liveries, reflecting various stages of its operational life, including:
The original MRC Refrigerated version (with ice hatches, ladders, and walkways).
Liveries such as the iconic "Nepean Milk" and various railway department color schemes (e.g., Faded Grey, Clean White, etc.).
