David, they are all in the book GWR Goods Wagons by Atkins, Beard & Tourret. I have a copy. Any particular thing you are looking for? Terry |

Been a Pro Modeller most of my working days and at 70 decided to build a small GWR Branch but having left the UK 33 years ago and never having Modelled the GWR before, I found the naming of wagon types a little confusing. I just checked the book out a little pricy for my pocket . ____________________ http://www.dccsoundservicesplus.com/ |

Hi David, http://www.greatwestern.org.uk/stockcode.htm They were to my knowledge telegraph codes, so often bear no relationship to their function. The GWR site is a great source of information (and often modeling inspiration). Nigel ____________________ ©Nigel C. Phillips |
