KR Models Set of 3 Consett Iron Ore Wagons – Pack G (with load) is a model railway kit comprising three locomotives. The kit is supplied under the manufacturer part number KRM‑CON‑OO‑3G.
The models represent British Railways rolling stock from the late crest period, specifically the iron‑ore wagons that operated between Tyne Dock and the steelworks at Consett.
Each wagon is modelled to a 56‑ton capacity and includes a vacuum automatic brake and four power‑operated side discharge doors that would have been controlled by the locomotive driver. The real wagons were used with Q7, 9F and later Class 24 locomotives and carried the running numbers B446000, B446016 and B446023.
