The model of a 'Carflat' first appeared in the Hornby catalogue in 1977 and six versions of it have been produced over the years. Always in the past it has carried three plastic bodied Minix cars, mostly Ford Sierras, but it has been reintroduced this year with three metal bodied SkaleAutos Morris 1000 vans. The six metal railings come separately packed and the three vehicles sit on skids with adhesive pads so that they can be stuck down onto the wagon's decking. The wagon's running number is B748721.
