ZDV - SatLink Western - Single Pack O Bulleid Wagons Three styles of buffer: largeIn the early 1980s, British Rail's shift to an air braked network created logistical challenges for the Ministry of Defence (MoD), whose depot sidings had sharp curves that could not accommodate newer, long wheelbase wagons.
