Paul is looking at how he can change this so the unwary don't suffer his wrath.. Thank you for this comment. Because, as with your example from Flicr, important information is left behind - the Flicr page gives info on place and date of photo and this is not copied, nor are any comments that others have added. You also still have to click on it and go to the Flicr site to enlarge it. I might even flog a few downloads or prints, which helps pay for the site. Nothing comes free.

It will have been in internal use for many years. That link to the discussion is interesting, but it is incorrect in suggesting BR gave up with the top flap so early. Some of the wartime and immediate post war steel minerals did not have the flap door - and they were high wagons compared to many RCH wooden mineral wagons. It seems to have been the late 60s or early 70s when the top flaps began to be welded in place, and the rebodies of the 1970s lacked the top door. By then conventional hand unloading would have been rare (if not gone completely - these not very good photos were of an historical artefact http://PaulBartlett.zenfolio.com/coalloading/e52ba4798 http://bit.ly/WQ5Tw8 http://bit.ly/Y0PXIT Incidentally a lot of steel minerals didn't make it into the 1970s http://paulbartlett.zenfolio.com/midlandrailway/h52befd34#h52befd34 What a waste.
