The Queensland Railways K and KA cattle wagons were of wooden construction and there were thousands in use on Queensland Rail (until recently in the case of the KA). The KA was suitable for express freight trains while the K could only be attached to goods trains.

The kit has been developed to cater for both the On42 and On30 markets.

For On42, the recommended bogie for the KA version is a stock S gauge 5'6" wheelbase freight bogie, which has a slightly shorted wheel base than the prototype but otherwise closely matches the specifications. For the K version O Aust has developed a 4' archbar bogie to QR specifications.

For the On30 market the O-Aust 4' archbar can be used (please specify On30 when ordering) or alternately an off the shelf On30 arch bar can be used.

The kit consists of polyurethane castings and lost wax and etched brass details including operating sprung buffers.

KIT PRICE $125.00 including bogies and wheelsets (please specify which bogies are required when ordering).
