BRAKE VANS- National Network.

Hmm, can't see a great deal but it looks like a LMS diagram D1657 to me. Possibly numbered in the 29xxxx range, built Derby 1930 give or take a few years.
I don't have this on my lists so well done for finding it.

I will return later when its sunny and take a better picture for you

 

I've been offered one from that diagram, but I don't know much about wagons.

 

I saw the one at Manea today, still there

 

Right good news on this from the whitwell side, We have obtained one of the brake vans, We are getting it next week or so, Off topic but also a possible class 47 or 31, cant remember what he said.

 

The BR brake van from Wroxham, 954420 has now been removed. Is this the one your expecting or the LMS van thats still there.
Cheers
Steve

 

Well he (helper) said that we couldn't get both because the other one is now back with its owner. So im guessing that we have the LMS but I think we picked it up on wednesday.
Ill get some pic's of it on the weekend.

 

I think it is the BR brake van we are getting, its been in the local news and comparing photos it looks BR. The other BV has gone 150 yards down the line andf will be restored to be a company meeting room.

THERE USED TOBE A BR VAN AND A BOX PARKED IN A SIDING ADJACENT TO SOME (I'M PRESUMING) FORMER RAILWAY OR BRITISH CELANESE BUILDINGS ON THE BURTON LINE JUST OUTSIDE DERBY. WERENT THERE WHEN I WENT PAST LAST WEEK THOUGH

 

If they're the ones I think they were they were scrapped at Booths in 2009. I could have bought the box van (it was a rare one) and slightly regret that I didn't, but Booths wanted silly money for it. The couplings have survived though...

 

Blyth Cambois BR 954510. I visited this van several years ago but it had been burnt out.

 

Tavistock Junction has a shark - not sure of the number though.

 

There's many shots of the one sitting at Shenfield:

In sept 2009 there was a 20t brake van with no vac cylnders, at least it apeared like that, marooned on a piece of track in a development site opposite( Other side of the main line) from the southern terminus of the Bure Valley narrow gauge. where it meets the main line. The van looked in fair nick for its age and could have been got out over the industrial area being sufficiently distant from the operational line from memory.If it helps anyone.
