Details

Production of this Anchor-Mount design began in earnest in the early 1950s. However, with the arrival of larger, vacuum-braked tank wagons in the late 1950s, the design quickly became obsolete, and the final examples were completed in 1963. These wagons represent a key stage in the evolution of British rail transport for liquid freight, combining practicality with the engineering solutions of the period.
