Ex Parkwood Models kit. These 10-foot wheelbase wagons were built 1936-7 and lasted in revenue service well into the 1960s, the last being withdrawn in 1970. Though classified as goods wagons, the SR used some of them for coal traffic, particularly in Kent.

The decals contain markings for early SR style (large SR), later SR, and BR. They also include makings for use as a ferry wagon (top right), converted to a cable carrier (lower centre), and departmental use (lower right).
