British Railways 3 Plank Wagon London, Midland & Scottish Railway Bauxite 472867

The 3-plank wagon, a type of open goods wagon, was commonly employed by the railway companies, especially the LMS. Some of these wagons were designed with drop-sides and fixed ends. The low sides of these wagons often led to their utilization for container transport. A significant number ultimately served as ballast carriers.
