With the Easter break out of the way it's time to carry on with the first glimpses of the HEA Hopper conversions for Train Simulator 2014. Tonight sees a first look at the Mainline liveried MEA mineral wagon.
Following the formation of the regional freight companies in preparation for privatisation they continued to develop their wagon fleets as they sought out new traffic and modernised existing flows. As a part of this, Mainline placed an order for 60 MEA conversions in 1994, again from RFS industries in Doncaster. Although essentially the same as the Railfreight Coal conversions these wagons omitted the inspection ladder fitted to one end of the earlier conversions.
