London North Western Railway, LMS & BR

Built at the turn of the century these wagons were built to be able to run in passenger trains. Yet curiously they were included in the wagon diagram book. Some 16 wagons were built in 1902 with one replacement for a D23 in 1912. These wagons were provided with a Drovers compartment and were fully fitted with Westinghouse through pipe. Seen nationwide, at least two survived in to BR. To download the most recent Assembly Instructions Current Version 3.00 released January 2003, 2 Sides A4 (77Kb Acrobat 3.01 file).
