wagons on view which is of great interest as many of them are quite freshly

left, the second line of wagons and fifth wagon in, immediately prior to the
the SR open with rounded ends. The Private Owner wagons include examples from
Arley Colliery, Tarmac, Dunlop, Binley Colliery, Whitwell Coal Co., George
Harwood, Bletchley & District Co-op, BTH, The Whitwick Granite Co., Roberts
of Birmingham, Wirksworth Quarries, Wilson, Carter & Pearson, Cannock
