What a ridiculously long title. 

 

Hopefully it accurately conveys what I'm looking for.

The Match truck paired with the CS crane doesn't immediately jump out at me as being a standard SR design. 

Are there drawings/any detail diagrams that I might be missing? Book recommendations are equally useful. 

 

Thanks in advance

From Peter Tatlow's book Railway Breakdown Cranes Volume 1 page 78 "the first No. 202SM was withdrawn on 5 March 1932 and replaced by ex-Somerset & Dorset 10 ton 18'-0" x 7' -5" x 5' -6 7/8" 2-plank open goods wagon No. 423 of 1912 to diagram 1309 and also accorded number 202SM later Ds 3089. Of Midland Railway design, a third plank was added to the fixed part of the sides, but not the end or doors, and at some stage a timber jib rest was fitted"
