Prototype information

The Rapido Diagram BR O15, with the number No.W20318, is a model of a British Railways-era wagon. It represents a 10-ton vacuum-fitted open wagon used by the BR, which is part of the Rapido GWR 5 Plank Open collection.

This model is designed to be used in OO gauge models, with a scale of 1:76. The wagon is depicted in the colours of BR bauxite, a standard livery used during the British Railways era.

The model includes a high level of detail, both above and below the floor line, which allows modellers to create a realistic representation of the wagon. It also features spoked wheels running in metal bearings, which adds to the model's authenticity.

The model comes supplied with parts to enable the modeller to attach the optional sheet rail in either operational or stowed position, giving flexibility in how the wagon is displayed. NEM coupler pockets are also included, allowing the model to be easily coupled to other wagons.
