The Rapido GER Dia.17 5-plank is a model of a GER Dia.17 5-plank open wagon, designed for OO gauge model railways. This model is part of the Rapido GER Dia.17 5-plank collection, representing the pre-grouping era.
The model is based on a GER Dia.17 5-plank open wagon, specifically GER grey livery No. 4014, which was in service before 1902. The model's features include single-sided 2-shoe brakes with covered ratchet and J safety loops, double door springs, and plain buffer housings.
The model's chassis and running gear are also detailed, with GER E-type axleboxes and GER split-spoke wheels that run in metal bearings. The model's high level of detail extends to the area below the floor line, and the livery application is of high quality.
The model is designed for use with OO gauge model railways, with NEM coupler pockets allowing for easy coupling to other models. The scale of the model is 1:76, making it suitable for OO gauge model railways.
