 I am not sure how to list this 2

Rapier was part of the company name not the model name !!
so


Quote n 1947 they negotiated to build Koehring excavators from America, thus creating the NCK brand. The first being the 304, which was re-engineered for UK production, with various Engine options from Thornycroft, GM, Dorman, Rolls Royce, AEC or Gardner available. The Std option being the Dorman 66hp unit.

The Ransomes and Rapier years
In 1958 they took over Ransomes & Rapier based in Ipswich, England. production being moved to the Ipswich factory were the Ransomes & Rapier Walking Draglines, were produced, with the R&R designed cranes dropped, in favour of the NCK models, thus becoming NCK-Rapier machines.

Quote Successor brand to NCK, from take over of Ransomes & Rapier, by NCK parent Newton, Chambers & Co.


model for this 2 could be 205 but I am not sure we could leave them without model designation entirely since they are soo rare on IMCDB

well you read above the merger was done 1958 and the film was released in 1958 so those machines are original NCK only
