Prototype info: 550027-60, built 1988-9
'New generation' nuclear waste wagons built in small batches from 1976-89 replacing the earlier types which were all withdrawn by 1989. The kit is based on the last and largest batch, though all looked very similar (550009-16 were noticeably different when built, but were rebuilt to the later outline in the early 1980s).
