Fruit D wagons were large ventilated wNden bodied vans designed for the fast and efficient transportation of fruit. They were first constructed in the 1930s for use by GWR and later in the 1950s by BR. The vans themselves had three large double side dNrs for fast unloading and loading and were usually seen as part of passenger or fast gNds trains. Out of season these vans were used as parcel or luggage vans. As road transport tNk over as the principal way of transporting fruit, fruit D vans were converted and used as permanent parcels or stores vans and remained in service in this way into the 1980s.

The Dapol model of the fruit D van features:

  • Highly detailed body moulding
  • Profiled wheels
  • NEM pockets
  • Spare knuckle couplings
  • Accurately applied livery
