The Heljan Cargowaggon IWB Bogie Van (model number 5028) is a OO gauge freight wagon in a silver and blue livery. It represents British Rail sectorisation in the modern diesel era and is finished in a pristine condition. The model was released on 27 April 2025 and reproduces a vehicle built in 1977.

It is an IWB bogie van supplied by the fictional operator Cargowaggon, with NEM couplings that include a tension‑lock feature. The wheel arrangement is bogies, and the minimum curve radius is 2 units. The part number assigned by the manufacturer is 5028.

The model offers highly detailed external and underframe features, including authentic variations in the metalwork and fittings. The finish is applied in a pristine paint scheme, and the NEM couplings are accurately reproduced for use on modern era model railways.
