Heljan Dogfish ballast wagons in sectorisation engineers liveries – pack of four models. The set includes three Dutch liveries and one LoadHaul livery, all presented in a pristine finish.

All four wagons are modelled in OO gauge and represent ballast wagons (type ZFV) with a four‑wheel arrangement. They feature NEM/Tension‑lock couplings and are capable of negotiating a minimum radius of curve 1. The models bear the running numbers DB983037, DB983210, DB983260 and DB993111.

The wagons are based on prototypes built by Metro‑Cammell between 1955 and 1961. The manufacturer part number for the set is 4098, and the models depict the period of the Initial Privatisation.
