It looks like a NER Road van with home made windows added to me, note the different colour in that area to the window area. Never heard of any NER Special livestock vans.

Re: special livestock wagons
It is a model of the very first Road Van, which did have windows. It's paper overlays on a wooden body - I have one somewhere.
Never used for livestock. Tatlow will give you build dates. etc.

Re: special livestock wagons
I do believe that the NER produced a Special Cattle Van. I think that there was a photograph in one of The NER Records, perhaps vol2

Re: special livestock wagons
This road van appears to be covered using one of the Merco printed paper sides - 'lithos' - which were available from Hamblings in my youth. Very acceptable at the time, although some of the chosen prototypes (like this one) were rather odd choices.
