The five plank became the GWR\u2019s standard wagon design and, essentially, variations on the post-1904 version with a 3ft 3in deep and 8ft body continued to be built well into the 1940s. The GWR built 10,815 Dia. O11s between 1911-1919 and\u00a02,105 Dia. O15s up to 1922.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>\u00a327.95 each<br \/><\/strong><\/h2>\n<h4><strong>RRP: \u00a332.95<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/railsofsheffield.com\/search?q=rapido%20943&amp;type=product\"> <button class=\"button button1\">Shop Now \u2192<\/button> <\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h2>Product Features:<\/h2>\n<p>All-new tooling with many detail variations including optional Williams patent sheet supporter and two types of floor planking<br \/>\nFinely detailed model with plastic bodies\/ chassis and metal detailing<br \/>\nMetal wheels, axles and bearings for smooth running<br \/>\nNEM tension lock couplings<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span>GWR DIAG V14\/ V16\/ X6 &#8216;MINK A&#8217; VANS &amp; DIAG Y4 BANANA VANS<br \/><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>The GWR used the telegraphic code \u2018Mink\u2019 for the majority of its general purpose vans.
