SERkits	Wagons	Kits		South Eastern	1087 / SR Diag 1553	VAN70	SER/SE&CR/SR VAN70 8’ wheelbase Covered Van - Resin bodied kit - Based on SE&CR diagram 1087, and with detail added from later SER drawings, this 8’0 wheelbase van was a common sight throughout SER and SE&CR days from the 1860s onwards. Up to a hundred survived into Southern Railway days, many becoming tool vans. Features include: external framing, 4-rib buffers with 14” wooden-padded heads, single push-rod brake and torpedo vents
SERkits	Wagons	Kits		South Eastern		TT60	SER/SE&CR/(SR?) - Pair of timber trucks - Sold as a pair, these two timber trucks are some of the earliest used on the SER, dating from 1859. With a body length of only 10 feet, they are distinctively tiny. Features include rotating bolster, cast stanchions, fine chain and independently sprung buffers. (Tree trunks not supplied!) The trucks survived into SE&CR days, but may or may not have made it onto Southern tracks. The Caledonian Railway had very similar trucks.

SERkits	Wagons	Kits		South Eastern	552 / SR Diag 1327	ROW77	SER Round ended wagon - Resin bodied kit - Based on SER drawing No. 552, this open wagon was built in large numbers from the late 1870s into the 1890s, before being superseded by versions with angle-iron end-stanchions. Features include: external diagonal strapping, wider tapering end stanchions, 3-rib buffers with 12” metal heads, single push-rod brake and tarpaulin bar. Most of the wagons were running in SE&CR days, when the ends began to be cut down. Quite a number survived into Southern days, still with the round ends, although some were cut down.
SERkits	Wagons	Kits		South Eastern	823 / SR Diag 1327	ROW 85E	SER Round ended wagon - resin bodied kit - Based on SER drawing No.823, 1885. Although the body is virtually identical with ROW77, the larger wheels and iron block brake give it a distinctively different appearance. It appears in several period photos, loaded with bales of straw or hop pokes. Features include: external diagonal strapping, wider tapering end stanchions, 3-rib buffers with 12” metal heads, screw couplings and iron block brake. These also survived with round ends into the SR period.
SERkits	Wagons	Kits		South Eastern	773 - SR Diag No1328	CW83	SER Coal Wagon - Resin bodied kit - Large numbers of these coal wagons were built for the SER during the second half of the 19th Century. This kit is based on Drawing No. 773 dating from 1883. No earlier drawing exists, but photographic evidence suggests that very similar wagons were built at least 20 years earlier. By the 1890s the design was enlarged and updated, but many of these earlier smaller wagons survived into Southern days. From the 1890s they were used as general purpose open wagons, not solely for coal.
SERkits	Wagons	Kits		South Eastern	1322 - SR Diag 1553	GBV60	Goods Break Van: Resin bodied kit - Based on SER Diagram 1322, this type of goods brake van was built for 20 years before being updated with heavier curb-rails and lever-and-link brakes. Kit features include castings to make the complete slide brake with its distinctive external bevel gears; plus cast running board brackets, cast lamp irons, and the distinctive lamp to be placed on the side of the van. (The lamp was intended to show a white light forward to reassure the driver, as well as a red light to the rear.) Many of these vans survived into the 20th century, with quite a number running in Southern days on backwater duties.
