faa77 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 (edited) I am trying to find photos of a few BAA wagons which do not show up in the usual websites (Paul Bartlett's, Flickr etc). I am trying to see what types of ends they had and what livery/whether they had the "Railfreight" logo. More generally, I am trying to find how many BAAs carried the railfreight livery (in case someone out there has this information?). Does anyone have photos of the following BAA wagons: 900008 900019 900023 900028 900031 900033 900037 900038 900039 900041 900042 900043 900044 900046 900050 900053 900057 900062 900064 900065 900067 900081 900085 900088 900091 900092 900094 900096 900098 900101 900103 900113 900118 900122 Edited April 10, 2019 by faa77 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Controller Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 I don't know if you've looked on here; one you're looking for (900005) appears as a BZA:- https://ukrailwaypics.smugmug.com/UKRailRollingstock/B-tops-codes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did encounter that website. Good for end types but not for railfreight livery (because it's modern photos so the railfreight livery has been removed) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Controller Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Is it the livery the wagons were delivered in that you're seeking? The only place you might find note of that, that I can think of, is in the newsletters of the 'TOPS Circle' that David Larkin used to collate and edit in the early part of the 1980s. Sadly, these pre-dated the world of PCs and Notebooks, being typed, cyclostyled, and delivered by the postman. Apart from things like new wagon deliveries (not that there were many at the time), they noted the livery variants in which the new air-braked designs were delivered. Somewhere, I have my copies of the TOPS Circle newsletter; if I find them, I'll try and do a precis of the liveries, and the dates of the Lot Numbers concerned. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to know all the BAA wagons with red ends (Railfreight), what end types they had (below is the 5-bar variant), whether they had the Railfreight logo (not all with red ends had the logo) , any metals sector markings/decals etc. Edited April 9, 2019 by faa77 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Phil Mc Posted April 11, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 11, 2019 Might help with the end style, but too late for the livery details ! Think only 900064 is on the list, but other pics are just for info. Cheers, Phil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

( the number is stencilled on the bottom right-hand corner of the endplate ) I just took pics of all the wagons in the rake as it went past, but all the rest were BBA's. I can PM you the original (full size) pics if there any use to you. Cheers, Phil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
