Rapido's V16 model is a representation of a GWR unfitted van, specifically GWR No.96112. This model falls within the OO gauge and is part of the Rapido GWR Mink A collection.

The model depicts a van from the Big Four period, which spanned the 1923-1948 era of British railway history. The Big Four comprised the Great Western Railway (GWR), London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS), London and North Eastern Railway (LNER), and Southern Railway (SR).

The van itself is modelled as a standard GWR grey vehicle with 25-inch letters. It features a standard door and short rainstrip. The wheels are spoked and run in metal bearings, providing smooth operation. The model also boasts a high level of detail on both above and below the floor line.

The model is designed for OO gauge, with NEM coupler pockets for easy connection and disconnection of other rolling stock. The scale of the model is 1:76, making it a suitable representation of real-life railway vehicles.
