This pack contains two IWA timber carrier (Rfnoos) models
160 IWA ferryvans were built by Waggon Union from 1987 and their design incorporated integral one-piece sides and roofs so that each complete half can be lifted and slid over the other, using the distinctive handwheels at each end, for unencumbered loading and unloading.
30 of the Sfins2 vans had the hoods removed and have been converted into timber carriers.

Waggon Union constructed 160 IWA ferryvans from 1987. Their design featured integral one‑piece sides and roofs that could be lifted and slid over one another using handwheels at each end, allowing straightforward loading and unloading. Thirty of the Sfins2 vans later had their hoods removed and were converted into timber carriers.
Each wagon includes NEM standard coupler pockets with narrow tension‑lock couplers, a kinematic close‑coupling mechanism, extra‑fine factory‑fitted plastic detail parts and pipes, and blackened RP25.110 profile wheelsets measuring 26 mm over the pinpoints.
Revolution Trains acknowledges the assistance of Touax, the current owner of the wagons, and Arlington Fleet Services at Eastleigh for providing detailed drawings and access to the real equipment.
