The Rapido D1400 8 Plank Wagon is a model of a SR 8 plank open wagon, specifically No. 27363. This model is part of the Rapido SR 8 Plank collection and is designed to represent the vehicles used by the Southern Railway during the Big Four period, which spanned from the grouping of the railways in 1923 to the nationalisation of the railways in 1948.

The model is built to 1:76 scale and is in OO gauge. It features a 10ft wheelbase and a "Freighter" brake system. The wheels are split-spoked and run on metal bearings. The model's construction is via injection moulding, with metal detailing parts added for enhanced accuracy.

The level of detail on the model is high, with features present both above and below the floor line. The model also includes NEM coupler pockets for easy connection to other rolling stock. The model is finished in SR Brown livery, as worn by the Southern Railway after 1936.
