DESCRIPTION
DETAILS
Built by Metro - Cammell, and almost identical to the GWR-owned type (these and the first batch of BR wagons were unfitted). They were used for tipping ballast from an adjacent line onto the trackbed, before laying the track. The opposite side of the wagon to the tipping direction was clipped to the rail, and the body moved sideways on rollers. The end chains attached to arms on the door opened it as the body tipped.
