About the wagons...

Between 1913 and 1914 the SECR purchased a number of wagons from RY Pickering. These wagons were built to move coal and were at the time were primarily used by Willam Cory & Son (Coal Factors) based in Erith.

These wagons carried a variety of liveries - Wainwright light grey with small SECR lettering and black metalwork, all over Maunsell dark SECR grey with large lettering and also standard SR pre-1936 brown.

We are pleased to offer these wagons for the first time in 4mm OO gauge. These wagons are produced by Rapido using their latest RCH 7 plank open wagon tooling featuring both side and end doors, angled vee-hangers, double sided brakes, flat-fronted axleboxes and split-spoked wheels.

Although not all minor detail differences can be captured with this tooling, these wagons will be as close a representation of the SECR wagons as possible and will fit perfectly with the new SECR brake vans – particularly our exclusive single-veranda types.

Rapido Set of 3 SECR 12‑ton 7‑plank mineral wagons (SR diagram 1358) in the late SECR livery (all over dark grey). The set is a limited‑edition release from the Rails of Sheffield range and carries the manufacturer part number 967236. It represents the pre‑grouping period.

The wagons model the mineral wagons purchased by the South Eastern and Chatham Railway between 1913 and 1914 from RY Pickering. They were originally used to transport coal for William Cory & Son, based at Erith, and were seen in various liveries, including Wainwright light grey, Maunsell dark SECR grey and the standard SR pre‑1936 brown.

The models are produced in 4 mm OO gauge using Rapido’s latest RCH 7‑plank open‑wagon tooling. Features include side and end doors, angled vee‑hangers, double‑sided brakes, flat‑fronted axleboxes and split‑spoked wheels. While minor detail differences cannot be reproduced fully, the design aims to be a close representation of the original SECR wagons.

Each wagon in the set is individually numbered 14621, 14862 and 14575. The models are intended to integrate with Rapido’s new SECR brake vans, particularly the exclusive single‑veranda types.
