I had thought the rails on the Mk1s were wooden (except the early ones which were rubber) so I am glad you shouted up Lynn... i was going to make them out of wood but I may have to have a re think. i beleive if i recall correctly the carriers with the rubber rails also had rubber step pads on the rear steps (rather than the diamond plate)
mine being a 42 carrier may be considered later production so perhaps i will get away with the wooden variant rails.
