Dapol 7 Plank Wagon – John North is a ready‑to‑assemble model kit produced by Dapol. The kit is supplied under the reference DAMU90018 and recreates a wooden‑bodied freight wagon typical of the period when the four major British railway companies – the LNER, LMS, GWR and SR – operated.
The model represents a 7‑plank wagon used for general goods traffic, featuring a traditional oak underframe and a simple, utilitarian design. It is intended for 00 gauge railway layouts and is supplied as a set of wooden components, hardware and a detailed instruction sheet for assembly.
The kit includes all necessary fittings, such as steel axles, wheels and coupling hardware, enabling the builder to create an accurate replica of a historic British freight wagon for use on model railways.
