Following research into suitable wagons to run with the all-new Metropolitan Railway 0-4-4T, Rapido Trains UK identified several five-plank open wagons that are similar to the planned new 1907 RCH wagon tooling.

Two five-plank open wagons are planned finished as Met 544 in grey with single sided brakes (Cat No. 967022) and London Transport A945 in grey with double-sided brakes (967023).

Prices are set £32.95 each.
