26 Ton Iron Ore Tippler

B388612

Built in 1960 by BR workshops at Derby to vehicle diagram 1/185 Lot 3363. Similar in appearance to the more common 12T mineral wagons used to carry coal except it does not have any doors. It is also longer and has a larger carrying capacity of 26 tons. This is an iron ore tippler.

 

It was bought privately from Highworth Junction, Swindon and brought to the S&D in 2006.
