The Rapido D1379 8 Plank Wagon is a model of a British railway wagon produced by Rapido. The model is designed to represent a wagon in the early British Railways era, specifically with the crest logo.

The model is part of the Rapido SR 8 Plank collection, which focuses on replicas of Southern Railway wagons from the 1930s. The model itself is a representation of the SR dia.1379 8 plank open wagon.

The model is produced in BR Grey, a colour scheme commonly used by British Railways during the early years of the company. The wagon features a 9ft wheelbase and is equipped with a "Freighter" brake system.

The model's wheels are split-spoked and run on metal bearings, providing a smooth and realistic running experience. The model's body is constructed from injection moulded plastic, with metal detailing parts adding an extra level of realism.

The model is designed to be highly detailed, with a high level of detail visible above and below the floor line. It is also fitted with NEM coupler pockets, allowing it to be easily coupled to other NEM-compliant models.

The model is produced in 1:76 scale, which is equivalent to OO gauge.
