KT-M7 A three plank open wagon of a wooden bodied prototype.  The kit features all metal construction and is recommended as an 'entry level' kit for those wishing to master low melt soldering techniques.  It includes an 8' 6" wheelbase chassis to BP 25150 which dates the wagon as modern for its type - no earlier than 1929.  The kit has working drop sides. photo(sides up)

KT-Xc1 Ventilated Van.  There is some discussion over the designation 'Xc1' and it has been suggested that it should be 'Xc7' but since all Xc wagons were built to the same plan it is probably academic!  Sides and ends cast in resin.  Styrene roof.  White metal door hoods, runners and door stop strip.  Supplied with 13' 0" wheelbase chassis with floating axleboxes. photo 1 Now withdrawn
KT-Kc1 Closed Van.   Similar in construction to the Xc1 but without ventilation.  Sides and ends cast in resin.  Styrene roof.  White metal door hoods, runners and door stop strip.  Supplied with 13' 0" wheelbase chassis with floating axleboxes. image to come 1 Now withdrawn
