Duncan Great footage Those 16t (not tipplers this time!) do look somewhat overloaded with stone.

Fat Controller Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Not sure those 16-tonners are loaded with stone; they look more like broken castings or similar. When I had to go through a year's worth of weighbridge tickets at BSC Landore, 16-tonners loaded with baled scrap generally loaded to 22 tons. The 16t Minfits used as fitted heads on tippler-services from Peak Forest had '2/3' painted in very large characters on both side panels on both sides to make it clear what the limit was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The small tank (10 ton) with the late Shell BP livery is interesting and the middle tank is one of a few with steel saddles not wooden as normally seen on a 14 ton 1927 RCH wagon. The others are 14 ton RCH with a variety of craddle and saddle mountings. Wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
